Hi,

Having searched with no luck, has anyone fitted a cup holder from an R53 new Mini? The one that goes around the gearstick. Pretty sure there was a piece about one of the Staff cars in Mini Mag a few years ago.

I wanted to do that, then I saw the price of an R53 cup holder and lost interest.

not quite the same, but I managed to modify one of those central arm rests to fit a pretty useful cup holder. If you lookup VW sharan cup holder, they are a really neat size and retractable such that you could probably fit one either into the dash or under the dash rail.
