Default Found a useful cupholder at last!

I've been looking for a cupholder for my S2000 for a while, I've seen a few people have got fold-down ones mounted permanently on the passenger trans tunnel, but I wanted something more easily removable. Saw this one on eBay, figured it was worth a go for £6.50 - it fits perfectly! Can either be fitted temporarily as shown (which is what I've done), or if you want it there permanently then just use a large key ring instead of the attached plastic clip and then the elastic for the storage net fits over the top. Hope this is useful for someone!

search Modifry cup holder.
They do lhd & rhd but check with them as I seem to remember the height of the storage net has something to do with the fitting

I have the facelift centre console but it's useless as a cup holder while driving as I rest my arm there and it gets In the way...

Modifry is a good shout but I don't fancy paying USA shipping and import fees

The other reason it's useless when you are driving is it's not actually against the law, but does fall under careless driving, 3 points plus £100, if you are caught eating or drinking whilst driving. If you have an accident whilst doing so that's dangerous driving which is far more serious.

:yawn:

Not quite true as usual. Eating or drinking whilst driving are not illegal. If eating or drinking causes you to drive carelessly then you may be prosecuted if caught, but you'd be prosecuted for the careless driving, not because you were eating or drinking.
