The ashtray for the cup holder and a 3D printed magsafe phone holder.
Plus a cargo net in the trunk.

I have the ashtray for the cup holder - use it for coins and think it looks great. I just wish it didn’t have such a large block sticking out inside reducing the usable space.

LOVE this trunk liner, Way nicer than Weathertech and cheaper.

Screen protection for the center screens:

Weathertech floor mats for the interior work well, but I remove the hideous label sticker.

Red aluminum tire valve stem caps:

Nice design for a front license mount, but mine is now ground to a nub from scraping. CT drivers should fare better.

Waterproof seatcover for those wetsuit or rainy drives:

BEAUTIFUL key fob cover in fine leather with customized crest and GTS and initials embossing:

The usb to lightning phone charger from Porsche is pretty good since the lightning end is at a right angle, which is handy for the armrest storage compartment since the usb port is at a tricky angle.

I had one from my previous Taycan and the dealer gave me another when I collected my new car so they must think it is useful /popular too.

When I converted one OEM ashtray to be a MagSafe charger I gutted the innards and it now serves as full storage unit (lid still works in place) AND a charger in one. I can unplug and remove entirely too if needed for mug/cup. Posted mod elsewhere ca 2 yrs or so ago but liked my custom vers. better than later marketed ones that did not retain the storage:

I'd highly suggest getting a Trunk Monkey. Watch some of these videos to see everything it can do...

Would be better if the installed charger didn't overheat the phone or require you to dislocate your elbow and shoulder in order to put it in.

That looks fantastic!

Out of interest how did you remove all of the innards of the ash tray? I'd like to have mine with the lid still on but just a completely empty pot when I open it.

Reposting from another thread. I’m pretty psyched to use this.

I purchased the Nine Volt MagSafe charger here and completed the install in perhaps 20 minutes. And that was taking it slow to watch the video twice, make sure not to mess anything up, etc. Installed using the YouTube instructional video which was really good. Unit fits very snugly in the cupholder - it’s not going anywhere and looks great! Pics below. Love it. Five stars! (Would give it six stars if weren’t so darned expensive.)

I don't have the storage package, and the place under the center console screen is essentially useless -- until I put a non-slip mat on there, and now I can just put my phone on there and it stays. Looks good too

DIY wheel change equipment:

Sonic make nice versions of these:
Low profile 2T floor jack
Torque wrench
Breaker bar

Also:
Ceiling mounted air compressor: GarageSmart AirDrop
JackPoint jack stands
Creative Steel Jackpads
GoJak wheel dolly for easy wheel removal / lifting onto lug bolts.
Jaco ElitePro tire pressure gauge.
Second/spare security bolt adapter matched to your wheelset if it came with them (I keep the original in the car so as not to risk misplacing it. The dealership can sell you a matched spare)

And of course you'll need a winter/summer wheel set in order for this gear to be necessary!
These are a huge time saver:

And make sure to get two.
