Default Re: Improved Cup Holders

I am probably the most adamatley against a cup holder person in a sports car there is. I would be very concerned about putting a cup holder over the radio/cd player.

That said, I have to admit that the thought has crossed my mind. On the dash, on either side, could one be mounted in front of the vent attached in the gap between the door and the dashboard? It would clear the steering wheel for the driver and not interfere with a maunal shift. It would also clear the knees unlike a door mounted one you can buy for older Benzes. (I have these in my 300 SDL and spill coffee everytime I close the door.)

Very little modification would be required to mount it to the side of the dash and any holes or screws would not be visible. I wouldnt buy one for my Xfire but would love something in my Benz.

Just a thought.
