Since we just updated our stereo unit, replaced the OEM amplifier, and replaced the speakers on the bulkhead it seemed a good time to include pics of storage solutions that are working for us.
Head unit is a Panasonic AVH-3800NEX, it has a motorized screen that can be retracted while continuing to play. This allows for accessing HVAC controls. The face is detachable. If I use my iPhone to drive Navigation and Music, the iPhone phone functions connect via Bluetooth. Not a bad workaround so far.
There are two cup holders that mount in the door pull. They have slots for phones, etc. We use only Contigo cups because they can easily lock and thus, can fall without spilling a drop.
There's one cup holder between the passenger seat and console. It holds larger-bottomed cups and is also a great storage spot for a regular ol' road atlas (because there are stretches of the Southwest without cell coverage, no GPS access without specialized gear, and a wrong turn in the mountains can turn into a perilous trek into the wilderness. So happy I learned to read maps when I was a kid.
The CarCan is insulated, we use small, reusable freezer packs to keep water, etc., cool. It is also a convenient trash bag between rest/fuel/stretch stops. We use the mesh cup holders on each side to hold collapsable canes and the front mesh pocket to hold a sun-protective shawl.
I didn't include pics of the cup holder in the storage bin because the console lid likes to knock cups over or bounce against cups and we don't use that for much ... now.
The only flaw so far is that the screen doesn't stand up to direct sunlight too well. I retract the screen and rock on, top down.
Lots of ways to increase helpful and useful storage in these cozy, little cabins. These are what's working for us right now.
