Where to place the car refrigerator in Audi A4L?

Generally, car refrigerators are placed in the trunk of the car to avoid occupying passenger seats. Requirements for placing a car refrigerator: Nearby power source—12V/24V power supply with sufficient ventilation space. Possible locations for a car refrigerator: When placed in the trunk, it is recommended to install a cigarette lighter socket in the trunk and connect the refrigerator to the cigarette lighter using a power cord for power supply. Car refrigerators can also be adapted to different vehicle models and come in various sizes. For example, a small 12L refrigerator can easily fit on the front passenger seat and be secured in place. Alternatively, it can be placed on the rear seats, but proper fixation is necessary to prevent the refrigerator from tipping over due to sudden braking inertia. There are also car refrigerators designed for the armrest console, with a capacity of about 6L, which can be embedded into the driver's seat armrest console, allowing easy access to the refrigerator lid for convenient storage and retrieval of items.
I've been driving an Audi A4L for over three years, and the car fridge is mainly placed in the corner of the trunk where the space is tidy and sufficient. The A4L's trunk is neither too big nor too small, about 480 liters, so you need to choose the right spot for the fridge. I use a compressor cooling model, sized under 15 liters, placed in the right rear corner near the door for easy access to drinks or food. The power is connected from the rear seat cigarette lighter, with an extension cord running under the carpet to avoid tripping. Strong Velcro is used for fixing to prevent shaking during sharp turns. It's most practical during summer trips, keeping food fresh and cooling water. After installation, run a test to check heat dissipation, ensuring good ventilation without being too close to the rear panel. Occasionally tried placing it under the rear seat, but it takes up space and affects seating, so it's not recommended. The A4L has a refined design, so choose a fridge that matches the interior aesthetics in color.
