I really could do with some more interior storage for maps, guides and my business note pad etc. The glove box is not deep enough for much and the seat back pockets are barely enough for one book. Has anybody found any underseat trays for the Scala? That would be ideal. I am sure I read a review somewhere when they were mentioned.

Somewhere on the forum you will find a thread with photographs where I created 2 removable lidded storage boxes that fit under the front seats of my Yeti, they are clipped to the seat frame, move backwards and forwards with them, allow the full range of adjustment and are not visible unless you put your head on the floor & look backwards.

 

They are clear plastic storage boxes from a tat shop, B&M or maybe B&Q I can't recall, they dont look much but cant be seen, two different sizes because I have a factory bluetooth module under the drivers seat even though I dont use it, they take a big volume of stuff, much more than the factory storage compartment that I had on the Octavia 2 and its much more practical to pull one out & put it on your lap to remove the lid and search for stuff in good light.

 

Each one was modified simply with a short wooden batten, 4 screws and 2 x2mm pipe clips.

Thank you, JR, lots to think about there and in the process of finding it several other avenues have opened up.

@Britunculus do let us know what you find that fits. I miss the underseat pockets from the Octavia (I wonder if i could have kept them and swapped them in ?)

There is a very large hidden unused volume under the front seats but above the crossbar even with the seat at its lowest height setting.

I was having a poke around earlier and there is quite a lot of room for a tray but how to make it easily accessible and not have it shooting out under my feet in the event of a suddden stop. It seems the Roomster had these as original fittings. There are a couple of posts by people who have retro fitted them on the Roomster. Seems as though I should have a mooch around the local dealer's yard to check whether they are standard on other models with seats similar to the Scala. If not then B&Q for a suitable tray.  

they do under seat storage but they a smaller than the glove box they are a pull down drawer
