Cheap tweak to hold more junk

Post by kjmeyers1 »

Here is a cheap tweak that actually works great for holding charts, sunglasses, ipads etc. You get 2 pieces in a box. Fits nicely between the outside of the seats and the fuselage wall.

Hi

I got a couple of these but they dont work with my 2003 DA40. There is no gap at the side of the seat that will accommodate them. CBrinton tried them in his newer DA40 and also had no luck.

If you have the gap which the OP is using for these and want to try them I will send them to an address in the US. Let me know

Looks like the OP has it stuck between an after-market seat cushion and the aircraft seat.

These should work great with my 2002. In fact, I have some weatherstripping stuck between the front seats and the sidewall to prevent things like charts and cellphones (yes, it's that large) from disappearing beneath the seats. Do you still have these available?

This seat caddy is showing up again. Good buy for a pack of two and free shipping if they work for your Diamond.
