Purpose and function in the centre console

The presented item is dedicated to the centre tunnel area of the Audi TT 8J and serves as a compact utility module. The integrated storage compartment allows for convenient storage of small items, while the ashtray section ensures safe use of smoking functions in the vehicle. The built-in 12V socket allows for the connection of chargers, adapters, or other devices powered by the car's electrical system, which enhances the interior's functionality during daily use.

Construction and interior integration

As an interior trim component, the storage compartment with ashtray and 12V socket has been designed to blend harmoniously into the lines of the Audi centre console. The construction provides for factory mounting points and proper routing of the electrical wiring to the power socket. As a result, the installation is straightforward, and the entire unit creates a visually cohesive and ergonomic part of the cockpit once installed.

Condition and service application

The item comes from dismantling and is offered as a used part, making it an attractive solution for post-accident repairs, replacing a damaged console, or restoring full interior functionality. This type of component is particularly useful when the existing storage module or 12V socket has suffered mechanical wear or operational damage, and the vehicle owner expects a factory fit and the preservation of the original character of the cabin.

Benefits of using the original module

Using the original storage compartment, ashtray, and 12V socket module in the Audi TT 8J allows you to maintain stylistic consistency and proper fitment of the centre console elements. The factory geometry and finish promote quiet operation of the opening mechanisms, and the properly designed workspace around the 12V socket makes it easy to plug and unplug connectors. This solution is particularly beneficial for users who expect to maintain the original interior finish standard without the need for adapted replacements.
