Storage compartments so annoying! Any ideas?

Had my RRS V8 HSE for a while and loving it!
I do realise however that one of the most annoying things is the absence of proper carpeted storage compartments in the doors to put my phone/wallet/garage opener/keys!

I cant stand the rattling in the cup holders and then again those are supposed to be empty for cups/drinks!
I used to drive a 5 series which is a smaller car but then there theres access to the door pockets that are nicely carpeted where u can put everything and there nothing rattles. In my RRS the glove compartments are too far!

Even the stuff in the cooler box rattles and on the plastic thingy above it the inertia forces keep moving everything back and forth!
Aaaaaah

Do you not have the odd storage pocket at the front lip of the drivers seat? Handy for a pistol sized object Shocked

I was saying i love that car and im looking for a 560SEL in black on black leather to keep cuz i think its the ultimate MAFIOSO car since my RRS is buckingham blue and not black Sad
i cannot go for the complete black look

i have to stick to the grey bits!

ya ya i know u have them but i was asking if u like the pieces u have on ur roof cuz i have the same and im not sure i want to keep them maybe the original look is cleaner more aggressive! what do u think?

Pocket in the chair?? This is new for me...was it on 07 models and subsequent years, I don't see it on my 06. Can someone take a picture of where this pocket is?

Thanks! PJPR
