The shelf under the 17" display is probably a welcome step in the right direction from the standpoint of most folks, myself included. However, it does not address the need for concealed storage in reach of the driver. Anything on the shelf will be visible to potential thieves. It is entirely possible that the only standard concealed storage in the car will be the glove box. And the glove box is notably less useable than one might think. There is a sizable gap between the door and the compartment which means when you open the glove box door stuff will fall out onto the floor through the gap.
While I like the under-display shelf, IMO it becomes much more functional and useful with a door or cover. The door would need to be sturdy, aesthetic and functional of course, probably folding entirely out of the way when open. I am curious what others think about this and believe it might be valuable feedback for Tesla now that the shelf is standard.
