Cup Holder for C5

Hi Everyone,

Love my car, but the cup holder is a joke. Has anyone tried one of the aftermarket ones that they would recommend? I'm getting really tired of watching my coffee mug do back flips every time I get on the freeway

Thanks,

Jim

Check out EB for girl-in-a box cup holder...they work great and fold out of the way when not in use.

Travel buddy

I have one of the travel buddy types from Fleabay or MidAmerica and it looks like it came from the factory. Good luck

Have to go with girl-in-a-box.

That may not sound right but trust me hers are awesome. No modifications and fold up when not in use.

Allegro,

Love the OEM look of the Travel Buddy. What is the diameter size? Just curious how a soda can or larger container fits.

Great product from Lori. Just warn the wife before it arrives

Packages bearing the words Girl in a Box can cause domestic strife

Girl in a Box for me...I reallly need to take a picture of it, its the only mod I take for granted I guess...folds up out of the way when not in use, color matched (black in my case).

Great to deal with. This is the way you need to go.
