Rip off CD holder!

I have the Audio 10 single CD player in my Coupe and the CDs floating around in my glove box are is driving me nuts!

I went into the parts dept. at my MB dealer to ask about the CD holder that fits in the glove box holding 6 CDs in tact.

Now..remember this is plastic and holds only 6 CDs ..Cost £52 (about 80 USD ) !!!

I think I'd rather pay the extra and have a cd changer!
Unless you guys have any CD storage tips?

I use a little zip-up bag that holds about 10 CDs, and carry it back into the house when I get home so that I can listen to them there. You have to take the CD out of its case, but the cases are more of a PITA than anything when you're driving. I'm pretty sure you'll find a case that'll fit the centre console at any consumer electronics store.

hmmm...
Here in the states, I get CD cases as free gifts from banks, computer manufacturers, stereo stores and the like. I have several "royal blue" nylon soft cases and a few rigid black plastic cases that I keep disc's in for various road trips. I'm sure that you can find similar products in the UK (sans tri-star logo and inflated ego ...er... price tag) at discount stores or stereo/computer outlets.

I have a case which holds 64 disk and at the correct angle fits in to the bottom half of the glove box.

I have a changer, but I also have a caselogic 10 disc sleeve that straps onto my sun visor. I want a new CD, just look up and hand it to the passenger to drop into the changer. Voila! They run about $10-12, very convenient and probably more so if you have an in-dash player.
