The seat compartment comes only with mechanical seats, power seats does not have room as electric drives are all over under the seat.

Though there is that little net thingie at middle console wall on passengers footwell where tiny umbrella fits...

In our car, the plastic mini trash bag hungs on that hook...
Truth, however I really try not to have any garbage or clutter in my car at all, I am pretty compulsive about clutter.

If compartments with electric seats are bigger than something that hold credit card size stuff then I have old info. As what I saw was some power seats do have compartment but it is way too small to be useful. Well who defines "useful" is another story...


From topic to another, the clutter...
What do you do with gum?
- Swallow it
- Spit it outside
- Wrap it to tissue and put it to your pocket
- Wrap it to tissue and put it to trash bag on that hook

What about driver or passenger having sniffle and using tissue...
- Throw it out
- Put it to pocket
- Put it to trash bag

Sure "no clutter" work for folks going up and down main street and sitting in car less than few hours and even I do that once a while.

Among that I drive jaunts to Utah, 1200 miles / 16 hours straight haul and stopping only for gas. Same going back to Kansas, if some one makes 1200 miles without snack then please share your tricks.

What the heck, why do I stress out of this, each of their own

Just saw these on the Audi USA site. It looks like they might get bumped by the passenger's knees. The larger case is $85 and the umbrella case (with umbrella) was around $110, I think.

My wife's 07 Passat has an umbrella holder in the driver's side door (accessible only when the door is open). And it came with an umbrella included.

It would've been nice to just have this accessory included given what the car costs.
