Insert for center console cubby

[shtaka]

I'm referring to the little covered cubby in front of the cupholders on a 2017. It's a convenient spot to put my iPhone although it flops around a bit. So I was wondering if anybody is aware of an insert that would snugly hold a cell phone? Or maybe someone with a 3d printer could make one?

Hi shstaka. Take a look at the center console tray discussed in this thread. I purchased one for my 2018, and it comes in very handy. Much more so than the smaller factory/OEM tray:

And here are others: https://www.google.com/search?q=2017+MKZ+center+console+tray&client=firefox-b-1-d&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi9sqKurOjzAhXxg-AKHR4IDBAQ_AUoAnoECAEQBA&biw=1920&bih=994

 

I realize you asked about an insert for the forward cubby/ashtray, because you want something to keep your phone readily available (and not inside the center console, under a lid). However, there are none I know of, and this tray is real and available now. However, if you don't care for this, perhaps someone will design and 3D print something for you.

 

Let us know if you do find something, since other members will certainly be interested too.

 

Good luck.
