LC1 Extended Storage

Has anyone got an LC1 with extended storage?

My F25 with extended storage included 2 chrome lipped plastic tubs to fit in the front cupholders - great for holding loose change etc - I have ordered the extended storage on my LC1 but there is no mention on the website that these tubs are included and not sure if they fit bearing in mind the front cupholders now have a sliding cover. Any advice appreciated - may have to take them out of my F25 to put in the LC1 if it doesn't come with them...

We've got the extended storage option on our new 30d - no tubs...

I had them on my 2011 X3 Extend Storage, but didn't get them with my 2015 LCI X3 with Extended Storage, so had to order them on their own (£27.60 a pair inc VAT). They do fit, but you cannot slide the cover once they are in place as they are raised slightly blocking the cover from sliding.

what a stupid design, so if I keep my change in one of the tubs and want to keep it out of site i have to remove the tub to slide over the cover??? I wonder if there are any after-market tubs that would do the same job but fit low enough for the cover to slide across? I had a look on fleabay and saw a smokers tub that could have the lid removed to use just the tub bit - I wonder if that would fit..

I have an LCi model with extended storage - no tubs, but I use a soft pouch to hold my parking change and leave it in the right hand side cubby (under the light switch)

I had a bunch of quarters in the storage under the light switch. And of course one of the quarters got stuck under the storage door and almost broke the door. Now I put all of my quarters in a plastic film roll holder or an old prescription pill case just about the size of a roll of quarters. And place it in the storage under the light switch. So much cleaner and you don't hear the change rattling around.
