2010 MINI Cooper - Rear cupholder = Useless

Has anyone found some sort of insert that we can put in our rear cupholder that's kinda like the front ones? The cup holder is very larger and I live in fear whenever someone puts a drink in it that it'll topple over at the first turn.

Thanks!

You need to start buying the Big Gulp at 7eleven!

I noticed that too. I'm going to see about getting a replacement front one to fit in the rear.

Funny you should say that because I bought a Super Big Gulp, put it in that holder when I was driving and the first turn I went around a whole cup of Mountain Dew ended up on my floor mat.

I was quite pissed to say the least but I learned my lesson That is now where my change holder always sits.

It is a perfect fit for the "blender bottle" - I use it daily as my pre and post workout shake holder

Ah, yes. The rear cup holder. Too far back, with the seat all the way forward, to reach for change. On my 10 JCW, that was only good enough for the Mini-Fini arm rest!!

Cheers!!

Wait we have rear cup holders? I've never sat in the back. Hell nobody sits back there seeing I have no back seat.
