Purpose and function in the centre console

The presented ashtray and storage module has been developed as an integral part of the centre tunnel in the Volkswagen Passat B7. Its design allows for convenient use of the space around the gear shifter, ensuring quick access to small items and keeping the interior tidy. This element is particularly useful for drivers who expect functional space organization in the console without interfering with the factory interior layout.

Construction and fitment for Volkswagen Passat B7

The ashtray with storage is factory-fitted to the geometry of the Passat B7 centre console, which translates into stable seating and aesthetic alignment with adjacent panels. The original origin from the Volkswagen brand means maintaining the correct design line, material texture, and quality standard characteristic of this model. The module is designed as a complete unit mounted in the central part of the tunnel, so it does not require any modifications or interior structure adaptations.

Benefits of using the original storage module

Using the original ashtray and storage in the centre console brings a number of practical benefits:

• maintaining a consistent cockpit look thanks to the factory design;
• preserving the functional division of space in the centre tunnel;
• easier organization of small accessories within reach of the driver and passenger;
• installation compliant with factory mounting points, without additional modifications.

For workshops and individual users, this means trouble-free replacement of a worn or damaged element with a part compliant with the original vehicle specification.

Characteristics of the used element

The offered module comes from the Other storage and organization accessories category and is marked as used. Such interior elements, when used properly, retain their functional properties for a long time, which is why they are a reasonable choice for repairs and supplementing equipment. A used component allows for cost reduction while maintaining compliance with the factory construction standard of Volkswagen.

Part identification by numbers and SKU

To ensure the selection of the correct module for a specific version of the Passat B7, it is worth using the manufacturer's markings. The product has an assigned warehouse identifier SKU and OEM part number, as well as appropriate interchangeable numbers. Thanks to this, both service centers and individual customers can precisely verify compatibility with their vehicle.

If you are planning a comprehensive repair or upgrade of the centre console area in your Volkswagen and need other elements from the same group, such as additional storage compartments, organizers, or storage modules, check the available parts in the Other storage and organization accessories Volkswagen category.
