If anyone is interested i just bought 2 of these bags to go in the rear cubby boxes so i don't have to rummage around to find what i want especially tie straps which usually come out in one tangled pile - NOMAD Clear Top #1 Canvas Bag Small - CAOS Gear (https://caosgear.com.au/collections/canvas-bags/products/clear-top-1-canvas-bag-nomad-by-caos-23-5-x-13-5-x-15cm-1)

Thanks for the idea. I use double sided Velcro to hold the 2 ends of the tie down straps together. No more tangles   https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220216/a3500f29a4ceee839b134e2880a07aa6.jpg

Do they fit in both left and right cubbies? By memory 1 is a bit smaller?

Arrived this morning, bags fit perfectly in the cargo bins.
 Also got a snatch block to add to the recovery gear bag.

Just ordered four of them myself. I see that they have a canvas top model - same size but a bit cheaper. I'll use the other two under the back seat - one for the set of jumper leads and the other for some miscellaneous junk that has accumulated there from past camping trips. Don't mind some of their other products either. [thumbsupbig]

Late to the party but just ordered some too. Will make one for medicines etc and one for the left cubby. That’ll save all my lucky dip efforts. I have a first aid kit in my RHS cubby.

Looks like a great idea, but from memory our right and left cubby holes are different depths. My drivers side one is shallow compared to the passenger side? Maybe different models?

Kings make a similar item that fits into the cubby holes. 20 dollars each. Have worked for me for the last 2 years

Yep, i didn't want the kings logo but otherwise i'd say they came out of the same factory.

My four with canvas tops arrived today. Good fit in the passenger's side cubby box, and holds all my ratchet tie-down straps plus a pair of gloves.
Do not fit in driver's side cubby box, which is a lot smaller both in depth and in area as there is a ledge at the front of the box.
Very obviously made in China ............

Haven't unpacked all of them yet - this was one of the two opened (the other one is in better condition) and the wife will run this one through the sewing machine.
Still reckon they are a very handy little bag, even though the "quality" is probably to be expected, given where they come from.

I'd be asking for a replacement, i'm surprised that the D4 cubbies are a different size left to right. I have rear AC which is the only thing that i would have though would change the size but mine are the same size.

Wife has already fixed it.  :thumbsup:
Mine doesn't have the rear AC but the two cubby boxes are definitely a very different size. I have a CTek charger and various wires / plugs / attachments in the original CTek in the right hand side box, and that is pretty much all I can squeeze in there. On the left, I have one of these bags with half a dozen self-retracting ratchet straps plus a couple of "occy" straps inside - and there is still enough room next to and on top of the bag to fit a trailer plug adapter and a pair of leather gloves.
Tomorrow I'll start sorting out all the accumulated crap under and behind the middle row of seats and putting what I want kept in the car into the other three bags. One will definitely be for the set of jumper leads (if they will actually fit in the bag).

On a D4 2009-2011 both of my kings camping bags fitted either side driver and pass no problems, on later facelift model example 2014 the driver side is smaller but its the pass side that has the 2nd air conditioner for the 2nd row passengers which in theory should be the smaller of the two. My observation only. My kings bag now does not fit as well in the driver side as the depth is too shallow, fits in but cannot close the lid properly. Im yet to look under the driver side box to see whats there that made them make a smaller depth cubby. From memory only the jack stacks below the cubby but that may be the reason!
That doesn't make sense either as all D4's had the jack in the driver side rear pocket. So not sure why they made the driver side smaller then pass side?

I've been waiting for a post like this. My trusty 2010 doesn't have all the flash wizardry you get in (some of) the facelift models, but it has full size storage boxes!. No way I can justify upgrading it now! :)
