Default Cheap cup holder solution

I remember a while someone found these on Amazon. They're like 13 bucks and work great! Finally a good solution (that isn't expensive)

Nice find.

Do they stay seated by themselves as you pull your soda can out or do they need to be attached with Velcro?

I got them after seeing them here, they look OEM and you can still close your console lid, when not in use, which I like.
My tall Yeti glass still tips a little on fast stops and power shifts, but regular size bottle cans they’re fine.

The products in the links look almost identical. Does anyone know if one or the other works better?

These all seem to be based off the Dorman 41000 cup holder.

I've had one come out with the bottle/can occasionally. I can eliminate that 99% of the time by giving the bottle/can a slight twist as I remove.
