Arrow Anyone buy this Console Storage Tray for Facelift W212?

I'm thinking of 3D printing console storage dividers for my 2016 sedan.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Meantime, I ran across this product at Ali-Express. Has anyone bought this for their car?

These appear to be trays that sit above the USB ports... This creates a full length (hidden) space below the product.

Left pic for cars with single USB port. Right pic for cars with dual USBs.

Interesting contraption. The ones on eBay don't specify whether they are for 1 USB vs 2 USB option and reviews are good on Ali Express so I went ahead and ordered. I also went for the door handle pockets. Thanks for pointing it out and I'll give my impression when I receive it.

Neither would work for my 2015 so not sure why they list it as such.

My USB and media port are horizontal in rear of console

I also ordered some of these https://www.aliexpress.com/item/3302...54a34c4dISwo8w as there isn't really a good spot to store your phones once a couple of coffees are in the cup holders.

Check the link I posted again, and scroll down to the fitment pictures. Based on your description (USB horizontal in the back) then I imagime the option pictured matches your configuration.

Bought from ali about 3 years ago. Great product I installed a Zip tie with a loop in middle to make it easier to take in and out. Other than that it is great If you need a picture I will take one.

I think I see the Zip Tie? A sharper picture would help better.

Of the two versions in my first post, which tray did you buy? I assume your 2014 is the same as my 2016?

Did the same thing exactly. Works great for me on my 2014 w212.

no it has a single port in the rear of console towards the right and the power supply is on the left. I would take a picture but it will likely come out blured.

OK, based on the feedback, it appears that only the 2016 sedans have the dual USBs in the right rear of the console. (The 2014-2015s facelifts have the single port in the back wall.)

Based on this information, I have ordered one of the trays shown to the right in my OP. Delivery around Christmas.

Just got this delivered today. My 2016 has the dual USB ports and uses the model pictured on the right in the original post. The fitment was perfect, but taking it in and out is a little tricky as there's nothing great to grab. I'd imagine the 2015 and older model would be that much more difficult. So if that's going to happen often a trick like some of the others posted would be good. I think I'll leave mine as is for now.

Interesting to read this, since you and I ordered on the same day (Dec.6). I had all but given up on this, since it said 19 day delivery and today is day 27. Maybe I will receive my door pockets tomorrow then, although the tracking says it hasn't left China, yet, LOL.

Keep waiting! I actually ordered mine Nov 19. Lol. That being said, I also ordered a couple other things from different sellers and got them all new years eve and today. Probably a back log due to the holidays.

Wow, that's a long time! I've ordered several items from Banggood.com through the years, and their shipping time is far less than AliExpress. So I guess I'm spoiled.

I would have ordered these from Banggood.com, except that they don't have the door pockets and console tray.

OK, back in waiting mode...

The door pockets were one of the other items I ordered that came in yesterday, they fit good. Just a note if you did get front/rear they will interchange just not fit well. One is loose and the other a little too tight. Mine weren't labelled so it was a trial and error deal.

I bought one last year for my 2013 W212. It fits perfectly and makes the center console much more usable and organized.

I received my center console tray but haven't installed it because I want to add a pull-out loop/hook. I also ordered the door pockets which seem snug when I installed them but when you grab them to pull the door shut, they constantly slide out.

Would someone mind posting a picture w/the fitment for the dual usb port one? Want to pull the trigger but based on the pics, just can't picture how it'll look.

Thanks all.
