Does anybody know of some kind of anti-slip padding or anything for this little area? I keep a small thing of cologne and a sunglass cleaner here and the damn things slip side-to-side with every turn I take and bang the sides. It's petty I know, but its annoying lol.

I suppose I could just cut some kind of rubber padding or something to fit

I can't imagine you need either of those things at a moment's notice. Couldn't you just put them somewhere else, like the console?

You're right I could, but I like using that area for those things.

Okie dokie.

To answer your question: no I don't think anyone makes a shelf to convert the two wireless charging pads to additional storage.

Clearly you didn't read the question, you just read the title and went from there. I'm not looking for a shelf to convert them...I'm looking for some kind of grip tape, pad, rubber piece to sit in that little "shelf" type area between the charging pads and the AUX buttons.

Don't take this response the wrong way, and don't look too far into this thread as it's just a random thing I thought about on the way to work.
 
You have to be a realtor with needing that quick of access to cologne..... :ROFLMAO: ....all jokes aside fire up the 3d printer and make a little cradle for them to sit in .

If I had a printer I probably would...might be a good enough excuse to buy one, but seems a little pricey for this solution.

It's a small travel spray bottle, nothing crazy. I sometimes forget to put some on when leaving the house so a quick spritz before my long walk into work may be needed.

We're really hung up on this cologne :ROFLMAO: Replace that with WHATEVER item you want...that little area is slick.
 
Hit up harbor freight, you want a toolbox drawer liner. Thats what I use anytime i want something to not slide around.

Probably the best bet honestly, been needing to put some in my toolbox anyways so could just knock out 2 birds...
 
I like the solid mat, but they make a mesh version as well. Mesh to me just screams trap all kinds of shit in the cutouts lol.
 
As an Android user, I found the charging pad's blue charging lights repeatedly cycle to flashing red(not charging) when I try to charge the phone.
The charge times because of this are crazy long and inefficient.

The phone (Galaxy S24 Ultra) also gets very warm on these charging pads. I'm concerned the continuous charging/not charging is causing the extra heat build-up in the battery.

The charging/not charging and the heating/cooling of the battery cannot be favorable for battery life and endurance.

I returned to a super-flexible USB-C cord and only use the phone slot as a holder (asymmetric to the charging locations).

Kinda confused on what this has to do with the question I asked...???

I too do not use the chargers, I bought the BulletPoint mount and couldn't be happier. What I'm referring to is the space between the AUX buttons and the chargers. See pic in the original post

Well, fancy frenzy :ROFLMAO: , I would recommend some hockey stick tape. It is black and has a textured surface that may grab your unmentionables. I kid, I kid. I have used this tape on stuff where I needed friction, for example, my foam rock blockers on the side skirts of my GT500 wouldn't stay lodged in the inlet of the skirts, so I wrapped them in the hockey tape, and voila there they stay blocking rocks. Give it a try, it is cheap and easy to work with. You should be able to cut/trim it and it mostly hide in plain sight.
 
You could put a strip Velcro on the ledge, and a small piece on the bottom of each bottle to really secure it.

I wonder what fragrance we're talking here. I mean, old school Drakkar Noir? Surely, not Sauvage! @Frenzy is this you? :ROFLMAO:
