Title: Cup Holder Mk2
Post by: moby dick on 14 October 2010, 09:25: Anyone heard of a way to fit a cup holder to Mk2s? Not the grotty air vent kind. I have tried google with no luck. I am tired of getting hot coffe in my crotch. I am getting old :cry:

Looks neat but an awful lot of work I would say for a cup holder and thanks for the tip.

Post by: Mr Blue on 16 October 2010, 19:52: They do look out of place slightly.

Just wedge it between the seat and the hand brake.

My guess is that almost all of us have split a drink in our mk2's :grin:

Post by: The Mighty Elvi on 16 October 2010, 20:02: If the have the old dash with the tray instead of the centre vents, you can wedge a can in there.

I have one for sale by the way. :grin:

If you need to drink coffee in your Golf2 then you're doing it wrong.

If you are drinking hot coffee whilst driving, I hope I am nowhere near you.

Mk 2 Golfs did not come with a cup holder - don't do it.
