Disappointed in Muslogy center console tray! Bad mould?

[Jimmyland]

This came in today's mail. I was so excited to get it, as I have been told by others that they were very happy with them, they fit really well, it helped to organize a deep pit of a center console storage box. I put mine in the console today; they don't sit right, and the console lid won't close! Anybody else have any trouble with these? Is it, indeed, just a bad fit, a bad mould? Or am I doing something wrong?

Had the same problem. After playing with the trays here is the correct positions for them. You may have them in backwards they fit but lid doesn’t latch then.

Had same problem. Attached are the correct positions which allow lid to latch.

You are probably on to something there!

It was not my original plan to keep the Ziploc, but hey, it worked.

... and the price was right, too!

@bbhaag It wasn't backwards. I tried it every-which-way. It was slightly warped. It's better now and fits fine. I'm very happy with it now.
My only "expectation" was for the damn lid to close!

The top tray IS backwards in your original post, so everyone assumes that's the way you put it in. Including myself...

Yes, BOTH trays are backwards in that original photo. I had finagled it both ways, just happened to take the pics when it was in the WRONG orientation. I have since made it work. It was slightly warped, which is why I even attempted the 180° reversal in the first place, cuz it didn't sit flat either way . Obviously, the 180 didn't work either! But that's when I took the pic.
A little 'finessing', and it fits now; all is well.
Thanks.

I returned two random ones before I got one that fit. One was just a terrible fit and the tab would sink below where it should have, and the other didn't work at all no matter which way I put it in.

I went with this one and I only use the top section, then I have this divider in the bottom. Both worked out first time, but it's pretty common these cheap things don't fit properly. I had the same issue with the tailgate hole patch too. Had to break off a tab to force it to clip everywhere else because it was warped.

Glad you mentioned the tailgate hole cover. That was the very first thing I ordered, and it doesn't fit. Even my husband can't push it hard to get that final tab to snap in, and he's very strong. I've tried taking a dead blow hammer to tap it in, and nothing. It just won't go in. So it's resting on three tabs right now. I'll finagle with it some more, might have to end up doing some trimming.
My center console organizer trays fit really well now. I think they were just slightly warped, and when I put them in the proper orientation and closed the lid firmly on them, they sort of took shape, when sitting in the hot car for an afternoon. All is well that ends well, right?

Should have gotten the original from our forum member @P99Guy. If the one he sends you is somehow not right, he will send you another!

+1 on David’s 3D printed cover.

I got mine thru Amazon, CDEFG brand, fit is great, no trimming.

Same thing - fit great, same orange rubber pieces.
Notice ours has front and back lips to grap edge of box, not sides.
Liked the layout better for the little organizer areas.
