Me, I don't care for the CD holders that attach to your sun visor, so finding a handy spot for my music took a little doing. The translucent plastic Mini CD holder looks cool, but doesn't seem to fit anywhere. Where do you store your CD's?

several choices:
In a CD wallet- in the door pocket, on the euro parcel shelf, on the center console organizer, in the glove box using the organizer or not, or in the armrest that has storage.
In the 6 or more CD changer in the boot.

Sorry you don't like the visor holders. It took a little experimenting for the best way to strap it on, but my visor holds 20 discs and I'm happy with it.

I have the plastic round MINI CD holder that was given to me by my kids for some present kinda situation.

It fits perfectly in the glovebox shelf made by...... GoMINIGo !!!!!
(bottom right section to be precise )

Peace,
D

I store six CDs in the changer.

I use a 20-CD 'folder' wallet that I slide into the door pocket, plus a smaller Case Logic wallet stuffed into the parcel shelf. Loose CDs in jewel boxes go into the space below the switches, though I am trying to wean myself from this as I am putting together a three-guage panel for that space.

I have a 24 CD holder (one that is supposed to wrap around a visor) that I keep between my seat and the e-brake. Works great!

I threw all my CDs in the glovebox. When I get one out now, they're nice and cold .

I toss a MINI disc holder (looks like a big pill, opens double-sided clam shell style) in the spot behind the lighter/outlet of the center console. Works perfectly!

How many discs does it hold?

I use small flat Case Logic wallets. Mine hold 20 and they easily fit under the seats or in the door pockets.

I also have a Case Logic 1x1 holder (holds 24). I cram it between the center console and the drivers seat, on the floor. It's within an arms reach, out of sight for the most part, and doesn't move unless I'm doing psycho maneuvers I'll sometimes throw it in the rear footwell too.

I have the 20 CD holder that d-mini-ero has and have found that it sits in the netting on the rear of the passenger seat, is very easy to get at and does not slide around or rattle !

iPod for me, too. I LOVE being able to use it in the car! It's one of those things, like email, that once you have it, you wonder what you ever did without it.

I also find a CD wallet fits nicely into the right side of my GBO from MiniMania. Well, actually, I don't have the mini yet, but it seems a good fit, keeps the GBO upright, so I can at least admire that part of the Mini I actually have.

Whoops! A correction to my last post. The GBO is from goMinigo. I think Alan has a great product and want to be sure he is properly credited. My GBO with red felt will look great in my CR/W.

If I'm just running around town, I'll usually only grab a couple of CDs. They usually end up (in cases) in the pocket behind the passenger seat. If I'm roadtripping, I fill up my 64 CD and 24 CD folders (I need a bigger one now) and they stay somewhere within reach.

The 20 CDs that presently hold my favor live in the little round rubber MINI disc organizer thingie (the one that someone says looks like a pill). This fits perfectly between the E-brake and the passenger seat.

On huge roadtrips, I just pile all my CD folders on the passenger seat.
