That's rather nice (but pricey)

 

Try some of the Shipchandlers (Boating Accessoriy suppliers).

Get a nice one from a breakers yard!

I've put a sliding fold out one into my centre console, think I got it from a VW or Merc.

How about an R56 Centre console.

I think it would fit with a few little tweaks.

I saw Minivation at Bingley Hall - they're working on a pretty niffty little cup holder!

Hows about a cup holder console that fits between the front seats?

If you fancy a bit of modification I am certain that you could get a cup holder out of the dash of a late model Bora/mk4 Golf from a breakers - they work beautifully and close away nicely behind a little flap. Stable at 70 too ;D

I'm sure there have been previous threads here, where people have fitted the double rear cup holder from a Vauxhall Vectra, by mounting it underneath the lower dash rail with cable ties. http://m.ebay.co.uk/...6902?nav=SEARCH

I gave up on one of these after the first 5 hours of fabrication! Lol

I'm putting one in mine this week, I've used an under dash stereo mount.
And one of the double din converters from eBay.
The one I've bought has a small tray above the cup holders, press the tray and it pops out.
Only a tenner too.
Might put a centre console in and put it there in the future.

I am in the process of attempting to modify a Ford KA centre. It looks like it will fit. I will keep you posted.
