My new Octavia has a storage space under the drivers seat for a fluorescent/reflective jacket in case of breakdowns. When I tried to fit my existing jackets they seem too bulky to get in.

Are there any recommended lighter weight ones that members have managed to fit in to the small space?

I just ordered this from Amazon, only 1.99 delivered, very lightweight:

Perhaps a vest rather than a full jacket?  I have two in the storage space under the passenger seat of my Octavia.  Think I bought them in Lidl or Aldi.

OK thanks guys. Just ordered one. Worth a punt at that price. Poundland did sell them, but they were fined for not being reflective!

No storage space under passenger seat (like my Octavia2) just the small cubby under the drivers.

I swapped out the little cubby for one of the proper under seat storage boxes.

 

have a look at this thread for more info

Could also add one for the passenger side as well.

 

Just a bit of a git to fit.

I have one of my Work HV Vests under the Drivers seat, only problem is it's got " Northern " written on the back.

Nothing wrong with being Northern.

My 2016 Scout has one under both the drivers and passenger seat. Wonder if they took one out? A bit soon for taking cost out!

I have the Canton amp under my front passenger seat, so only have one storage space - under the driver's seat.

My vRS came with the storage box under passengers seat and the little shelf under the drivers. Seems to be the common layout for the vRS.
