Most gear organizers for cars are such space hogs that I end up chucking them in the trunk just to get them out of the way, which makes them part of the problem instead of part of the solution to car clutter.
Not so the little DriverPockets, which has just two back-to-back padded nylon pouches -- a slightly rigid back pocket large enough for a hefty cellphone or big pair of glasses, and a smaller front pocket for credit cards, keys, toll money or a slim-style cellphone.
What's especially neat is that the organizer clips to the car's heating and cooling vent — making it both handy and out of the way.
So simple, but very welcome up front with me.
DriverPockets (TADRPOCKETS), $6.99, cargogear.com or 866-792-6614.
