Temporarily fitted in place sitting on a bed of bubble wrap and wedged in with foam pieces. Not elegant but surprisingly secure.
I've cut a cover to shape (approx. 15 * 37cm) and will paint it matte black today then secure with Velcro. I don't change CD's very often so that will be fine. (Main music source is now digital via XCarLink, currently in the glovebox.)
I'll probably put the cover back in place and use the cubby hole to store a few bits and pieces I currently keep in a box in the boot - spare bulbs, electric tyre pump, etc. (Other stuff is kept inside the spare wheel and a 9L petrol can sits in the space opposite above the battery - empty but useful to have one  )
