Problems solved by technology

A problem with many of these vehicle storage solutions is that they are limited to the size of objects that may be placed within them while adequately controlling the positioning of the item within the storage space.
A vehicle storage space which is designed and sized to accommodate items of specific sizes is inflexible as such a storage space might be unable to accommodate items having other sizes.
However, an item which is smaller than the storage space may tend to undesirably rattle or vibrate and / or move around within the storage space.
This may result in damage to the item and / or undesirably contribute to noise in the vehicle cabin.
