Costa Coffee Cup Holders

Post by Rathean » Fri Aug 03, 2018 7:01 am

Although I'm still quite flexible :oops: grabbing my Costa on the move from the cup holder under the padding in the centre console requires levels of double-jointedness few possess.

Can anyone recommend an after market cup holder that's easy enough to fit and resilient?

I'm not sure the question was answered on that thread, this might take a bit of creative thinking. I'll post again if I find a workable solution for a right-hand drive z4.

The question wasn’t fully answered in my thread, but this is the same question, so one should be deleted or merged.

Was it Stuart at Beaulieu, that had quite a neat cup holder in his E89 car I commented on? it basically has a piece that sits between the passenger seat and centre console with the cup holder on top,, and just slots in and out as you need to use it, brilliant idea I thought.

Will be interested in how you get on with it.

Looks like it goes on passenger side but one pic shows it on drivers side when driving....wonder if that works/is comfortable with a lard arse like mine?
