United-Kingdom CD holder

Hello - I've just bought a mini cooper. Whilst I love it to bits, I seems to not be able to find a suitable place to put my CDs. If I put then on the nice mini tray on the passenger side, they just go flying! Does anyone know of a little extra of something I can buy to hold them?

I've got a soft case that holds 32 CDs from Halfords. It sits perfectly in the right hand side tray underneath trhe steering wheel. It jams in nicely and doesn't move. It's also black so doesn't show up easily from outside to any robbing little b******s !

Australia Cd Storage

I've had to purchase a cd wallet to store my cd's in
Mine can hold 48. They are available @ Crest Electronics
www.crest.com.au They are available in many colours including Silver with a bit of black the silver is the excat same colour as the Minis dash board and the black is very close to Panther Black so it blends+ in doesn't move Fantastic!!

Hi,

When I had a CD player in my old car (before I got minidisc), I used a standard storage case for archiving and I used the Visor CD holder from Case Logic (dunno if that's the exact name). OK, it only holds 10 CD's, but it's cool to put your favourite discs in and not have to worry about crashing your car because you were digging around the seats looking for the one that got away...
All you do is pull down the visor pull out the disc and throw it in..... simple really..

Hope this helps,

Neill

PS. I'll be getting one when my new mini arrives...

A standard CD wallet should be fine. Just be careful to either take it out of the car with you or to only keep copies of your CD's in the case. I lost 50 CD's once when my car got broke into and everything nicked. Still trying to replace some of them.

Thanks for your help guys - some good ideas there!

Neill - I particularly like the sound of the Visor CD holder. Where's the best place to buy - shop, online???

Big bummer

Would your house insurance not cover you for this?

Hi,
http://www.targus.co.uk/cases_media....2&PageNumber=3 9th case down...I have one and its fantastic for £20.00 Its a sports case so it looks good to. If not that one then I am sure there is something on there that will appeal to you.

Minimellie,

The Cd visor is available from any good car accessory shop, I got mine from Halfords. I have included a small picture from the Case Logic (US) website to give you an idea.

Hope this helps,

Neill

actually.....

Well,

It can hold DVD's too......... and pretty much anything else you can stuff into it. It would seem unfair to just say CD's...
