ok so who had a good fix for our cupholders not holding drinks?

i was thinking about extending the right cupholder down and also getting some kind of rubber around it that flexes to fit the drink. but i want it to look good?

w ould be cool, but wont help with bigger cups, i normally keep a 64oz cup in min, and let me say if my finger is holding it as i turn, it will tip over, just like it always had, plus we only haves o much room to go down, the shifter cables are right below the cup holder, you can probably do something to help with the 20oz drink sbut that it, those of use who actually drink soda and get the 32/64oz drinks will be screwed for life

I believe the red part is all the balts have.... that black/grey plastic insert is awesome but I still have to hold drinks in...

you know there is a simple solution to not having drinks spill everywhere. don't bring open lidded drinks into your car. the only drinks that go into my car are ones with a twist on cap.
