Been searching for some storage solutions for the cabin of my FX-3. Came across a guy on Etsy that 3D prints cell phone holders that attach on the center sidewall of cars. You can find him at this link. What he had available didn't work for me so I contacted him directly to custom make them. I had to be mindful when ordering because the back sides are more solid and meant for left and right hand center console purposes. So a holder that mounts on the car driver side center console is one I used on the right side of the cockpit. I mounted the checklist holder low on the left because its the flattest area. Above is a bit concave. Right side is my cell phone holder. Installed one in the back for a cell phone also. I'm using Command Strips as long as they hold. Since they are in a good position for my use I may switch to the 3M double sided adhesive.

By the way, the new Tac-Aero Molle Racks are top notch, albeit expensive. The front rack keeps my registration, Airworthiness Cert along with the POH below it. I use the backside of the rack to store stuff too.

I have the original TacAero TacNets in my FX-3 and they work great other than enabling my hoarding problems! But storing things in the vertical space (i.e. off the floor) really helps. First aid kit, jump pack, spares kit, tools, survival gear, usual "stuff" (dare I say junk) etc. etc. I also weighed them using a luggage scale to know what I have on both. Yes, very expensive (VERY) as usual for TacAero, but I wanted to throw them my support and seemingly credit card too :)
