Hey everyone with a ute. Have any of you got the cabin tidy option? If you have, are they any good, or a good waste of money? My main query is, Do they look out of place and weird, or are they fairly un-noticable??

They are very handy. When fitted in the cab they look like an integral part of the interior. Very tidy

Mine has been moved from the cab to the tray to allow me room for a Subwoofer.

It now sits against the front wall of the tray, and is ALMOST a perfect fit. Considering it wasn't designed to go there, I call it a perfect fit. ;)

I certainly think the cabin tiny is worth it. Just to stop things rolling around of the back floor. The only problem it causes is with the jack. The jack usually mounts behind the passengers seat, and when the cabin tidy is installed, it sits where the jack used to be! So this means that one side of the cabin tidy it taken up with the jack in it, and the other half can be used. The jack handle although will not fit inside, but it seems to be alright if you put it under the passengers seat.

Does anyone have any pics of one fitted in their ute? We were thinking of adding one too.

The jack "mounts" behind the passenger seat???

Must be an option?.. My jack & its bag of junk doesn't have a home!... It just is stashed wherever behind either seat with its silly "unstashable" handle hanging out the end of the bag!! Piss poor, I reckon?..

Spot on Charlie!!

That bag with the jack in it justs looks very .........crappy?

I would have thought it could have had a concealed area somewhere.

Hmmm .... trying to remember .... I think when I fitted the cabin tidy into my son's ute I left out a divider or two from one side or the other so the jack and handle would fit inside and out of sight. Or maybe it was the towbar tongue and spanner etc? Geez, keep away from old age guys - it's a killer on your mind heheheh. The jack may have just got stashed under the seat much the same way Ford do it - very unprofessional as Charlie has said.

In that Case, I'd definitely get the cabin tidy! I was told by the dealer that when the cabin tidy was installed, it goes where the jack was stored or "mounted". I assumed, that as in a few of the other work 4wd utes, that they would have a 'clip in' mounting system for the jack & handle.

With the cabin tidy the jack takes up one side of it, but it gets it out of the way, and it doesn't roll around during power slides!

Charlie .. Ford call it "the flying through the cabin" option ... piss poor is an understatement..... if the loose jack killed an occupant, then Ford would go a row ... big time ... been thinking to not have it in the cabin or car anymore and just call Ford Assist to change my flats .... it would be the safer option :hrmm:

I had a look at the cabin tidy when I got my ute but the thing that striked me is that you can not put something like an a4 file in there. It all looked very flash but when you got into it rather impractacle. :(
