Purpose and function in the centre console

The presented ashtray with a 12V power socket is a component from the Console parts group, responsible for the convenient use of accessories powered by the vehicle's electrical system and for keeping the smoking area tidy. The module is mounted in the central part of the interior, ensuring easy access for the driver and passenger while driving. Combining the ashtray with the 12V socket in one component reduces the number of separate elements in the console, which facilitates installation and maintenance while improving operational ergonomics. The factory mounting geometry and the styling line characteristic of the Golf GTD are preserved.

Construction and ergonomics of use

The element has been designed as a compact module in which the ashtray section and the 12V socket are logically arranged so that operation is intuitive and does not distract from the road. The ashtray cover allows for the aesthetic closing of the workspace, and the power socket remains easily accessible for connecting a charger, navigation, or other devices. Thanks to its factory origin, the appropriate dimensional tolerances are maintained, which translates into stable seating in the console, no unwanted play, and consistent transitions between adjacent panels. Such a design promotes quiet interior operation and reduces the occurrence of rattles while driving.

Benefits of using an original component

• Visual consistency of the interior – matched colour and shape, consistent with the Golf GTD equipment line.
• Factory mountings – no need for console modifications, installation in accordance with the manufacturer's solution.
• Full functionality of the 12V socket – the ability to power car accessories in an ergonomic location.
• Easier maintenance – modular design facilitates disassembly and potential replacement in the future.

Condition and practical application

The offered item is a used original part, which in practice means maintaining the factory design and compatibility while offering an attractive price compared to new components. It is a good solution both for repairing a damaged console and for restoring the completeness of the interior equipment after previous modifications. Choosing the original ashtray module with a 12V socket allows you to avoid problems typical of replacements, such as inaccurate fitment or differences in surface finish. As a result, the Golf GTD interior retains its consistent, factory character, and the driver receives a fully functional, easy-to-use console element.
