Kia EV6 Armrest/Console Tray Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июл 2024
- Not all Kia EV6 accessory trays are made equal! The EV6 armrest storage is deep so a tray is convenient for small items and easy access, but one version causes a problem and should be avoided. In this video I show you the correct version to buy so you can avoid spending money for nothing like I initially did.
** 2023-05-12 IMPORTANT UPDATE: Based on the comment from viewer howard bedford, in the pinned comment, it would seem that the CDEFG try that I bought has changed and is now the bad version. Please read the reviews of the item before buying. **

I have had my 2023 EV6 Wind for three weeks. I ordered the CDEFG center console, and it did not fit. The lid will not close completely. I think that there must be a difference in the center console sizes from 2022 to 2023. Naturally this result cast doubt on this recommendation. After checking the reviews on Amazon, I see NOW that several people have commented that the CDEFG tray does NOT allow the lid to close completely as indicated in this video. I normally check the reviews, but I was so excited about my new car, I forgot to check this time. Lesson to self has been reinforced, ALWAYS check the reviews before buying ANYTHING……
I am sorry that the tray has changed since making this video. I will put a note in the link to verify the fitment. This is why I hate no-name products that are made in China 😕
@@EV-olution Thanks for the update. Keep up the good work.
Dremel to the rescue.
@@howardbedford7534 thank you very much.
Great to see you back in the saddle. Thanks so much for this video.
Thank you
Hi André, nice to see you back 😁
Merci 😎
Great to see your videos again.
Thank you very much.
Thanks for this new content! I agree with the earlier request for more accessories videos!
Working on a big one right now actually. Two videos about one accessory 😎
thank you for your videos. I was driving the black ev6 this morning.
It is my pleasure and it was very nice to see another EV6, and you, this morning. I am working on the next 2 videos right now and will start another, about winter wheels and tires, very soon. Thanks for being a subscriber and for watching my videos.
Thanks for the tip André. This will be perfect in my red GTLine2
My pleasure. Nice to see you chose the best color 😉
Thanks for the video! I finally got my matte grey GT-Line Package 1 last month. I’m loving it so far!
Congratulations on your EV6 purchase! It is an excellent car.
merci André pour ce vidéo! ça m'a donné l'idée d'acheter la même chose pour mon Kona...
Heureux de pouvoir aider 😎
Thought I had the bad one since it had black silicone pads, but I couldn't recall anything that annoyed me. Luckily it turns out I have the good one.
Thanks for showing this. I ordered a tray a week ago not aware of the difference, and now I wonder which one I'll receive...
I'll just go dust off the grinder so I'm ready.
I am glad I could help. Let me know if you receive the bad one and how trimming it works out. I hope you get the good one though 😎
Excellente vidéo, je vais devoir vérifier si le mien, acheté avant d'avoir mon auto le 1 avril, est le bon. Sinon je vais le fraiser . . . légèrement avec mon outil rotatif de sculpteur sur bois le fameux Ram Power 45. Mais à date je n'ai pas entendu de couicoui même si le fit n'est pas parfait. Merci André.
Merci beaucoup, heureux de pouvoir aider.
Merci André pour cette vidéo, je suis présentement sur une liste d'attente pour l'achat de la EV6 Gt-Line 2, je vais surement l'obtenir d'ici à 24-25 LOL, je n'ai même pas plus seulement faire un essai routier, je trouve ça malheureux que Kia ne dispose d'aucun démonstrateur.
Ça me fait plaisir. Il y a des évènements de l'AVEQ ou il est possible de faire l'essai routier. Je suggère de regarder sur cette page pour trouver un évènement près de chez vous: espace.aveq.ca/fr/calendrier
@@EV-olution Merci, je vais surement aller à Magog, je me demande s'il y aura des EV6
Thanks André, This saves us from doing surgery if we get the wrong bin. 🤣, I'm starting to think about snow tires and what wheel and tire size to buy. 🚙
Hi John, I am going to be make a video about wheels and tires pretty soon. I am working on 2 accessory videos right now though. I loved my experience with Fast Wheels, an amazing Canadian wheel manufacturer, so I will be buying 18" Fast but I still don't know which model. As for tires, my experience with Nokian has been amazing so far, but with new EV winter tires coming out in the last 2 years I have a bit of research to do. I may go with the Nokian Hakkappelitta 10EV, but I don't think they make a version without studs. I will be reading about it soon.
@@EV-olution There is a new series of Hakkapeiitta R5 EV in 255/45R20 in other sizes they are called R5 SUV . Apparently they are now available in in Canada.
I'm going to call a nearby KAL Tire dealer to chat about it and 255 vs 235 width . Probably save over $800 per set moving to a smaller tire and wheel rim.
Thanks. I have heard about the R5 but have not read about it yet. I suggest dropping to an 18" wheel and tire for winter. You will save a ton of money and have better traction in the snow with a more narrow tire.
I need a Back Seat Cup Holder for a 2020 Kia Forte LXS. Where can I buy it from? Awesome video thanks for sharing. Thumbs up.
Thank you very much. I am not sure about the cup holder for your car. I did a quick search and there are some universal options, but I really don't know how they would work for you. Sorry.
Does it come with different colour options, it would be nice to match the blue on the dash?
Yes, I show them in the video.
Purchased the one you recommend. Once it's installed, it's REALLY difficult to remove to access underneath storage area. Any remedies come to mind? Thanks for nicely done video!
Thank you very much. I had not had any issues removing mine, by grabbing it by the edge where the coin holder is, until last week where it took a serious amount of force to pull out. I may make a modification to add a pull knob in the center. Easy enough, just drill a small hole, use a washer, a bolt or screw, and a very small "handle". Details to be determined.
👌👌👌
Thank you.
Be aware that the centre consle area is different for LHD and RHD versions
It's good you mentioned this. Thank you.
@@EV-olution I'm surprised how much stuff has to be changed between lhd and rhd. Had a few peugeots and they've got less and less that had to change
@@GaryBuck I had not thought about it until you mentioned it. That's why I pinned your comment. I find it strange that Kia would not make the opening symmetrical in order to use the same part for both lhd and rhd.
Please do more accessories for this car 🙏
I am working on one right now 😎
Do you know if this item can be bought in Scandinavia?
I do not know. You would have to do a search on Amazon that you use to see if "CDEFG Center Console Organizer Tray for 2022 2023 Kia EV6" is available. I have a link to the Canadian Amazon listing, maybe you can change the .CA to whatever you use in your country and see if it shows up.
I want to get one but your amazon affiliate links are to Amazon Canada. Can you do American Amazon links? I know you get a small commission on affiliate links and I want to support you as I have watched a lot of your EV6 videos. I just picked up my 2023 EV6 Gt-line AWD on Saturday.
I really appreciate it. Let me look and I will post a US link here.
I tried, but can't create an Amazon US account that is required to create an Amazon US Affiliate account because I need a second cell number. They won't let me use the same one I have for my Canadian Amazon account. Thanks for wanting to support me, but it's OK to simply use the .com version of the link: www.amazon.com/CDEFG-Organizer-Accessories-Secondary-Container/dp/B09T2D914Z?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=HZn3O&content-id=amzn1.sym.b09e9731-f0de-43db-b62a-8954bcec282c&pf_rd_p=b09e9731-f0de-43db-b62a-8954bcec282c&pf_rd_r=JJR1FMY85YGE031G75HE&pd_rd_wg=UOuqS&pd_rd_r=96b90527-a7ab-48c7-b4e0-c27b68be0198&th=1&linkCode=sl1&tag=evolution0f9-20&linkId=af6487e174f58995abe7d79226668782&language=en_CA&ref_=as_li_ss_tl
@@EV-olution Thank you, bought from the US Amazon. Watched your TUXMAT video yesterday and will order the mats when they get back in stock.
@@MichaelNugentDDS glad to help. You are going to like the Tuxmat mats. So far so good for me.
How about that Polo shirt !
Yep. I spent quite a bit for some polo and long sleeved branded shirts for myself 😎. I am not sure people will be willing to spend 70$ or 80$ for one. I bought a quality brand.
