Deckenablage


Explanation:
Ich habe zwar kein KFZ-Wörterbuch, aber Dachkonsole hört sich in meinen Ohren etwas "merkwürzig" an (auf dem Dach ..?).

Hab hier mal so ein Teil rausgesucht und finde, dass der deutsche Begriff "Deckenablage" besser passt. Denn mit Konsole ist in diesem Fall ein Ablage-/Staufach gemeint.

Hier noch ein Link zu \"Dachkonsolen\" ... das scheinen völlig unterschiedliche Teile zu sein, einmal direkt ins Dach fest eingebaut und einmal als eine Art Ablagefach über der Sonnenblende (wie von mir vorgeschlagen).

Musst mal gucken, was besser in Deinen Text passt.

Tschüssiiiiiiiiii
