Cup holder?

First world problem - are there cup holder extensions /expansions that work with the cup holders in the doors?

All the ones I've found so far are for middle console and they don't look like they'd fit, either outwards or upwards.

Thank you!

Re: Cup holder?

If it were me I'd just buy a cup that fits the door, beer cans are a perfect fit if you'd like to bring one along for comparison  wink

Re: Cup holder?

Yep those door pockets are pretty useless so I stow my torch in the drivers door pocket.
Having a single passenger seat I made my own cup/mug/bottle holders with add stowage for the
usual crap (and sweeties) one accumulates

Not as bad as slaming the door with hot coffee in there!

Has to be the worst designed cup holder ever.

When I searched for one about 5 years ago, there was one on ebay very similar to this one claiming to be genuine.  Same price too.  :-

I didn't buy one.

"Has to be the worst designed cup holder ever."
Yep.
Just been putting my dash back together and these vans don't really have any obvious room for cup holders
Before I made my stowage+cup holder box I did put a self tapper in the lower panel and hang a flexible one on for while but it did tend to flap about a bit
Something better could be devised but if you have two passengers it would affect leg room
There is also that blank panel to the left of the radio
It's easily prised out and there's nothing going on behind it in my van at least, so you could perhaps fix a cup holder there

Oddly, on the Synergie/806 that's an additional vent. No idea why it's different in the vans
