The best ones are all metal with black plastic over the middle bit.
If you prefer the all metal look then simply cut off the plastic.

I didn't get one, but they can easily be purchased off eBay.

Don't know about you guys but I don't tend to drink bottles (which is basically code for beer as what other drinks these days come in bottles that require a bottle opener) whilst driving . . .

You can still get bottles of coke with metal caps.

That is true, but really, who buys them .  . . .

Maybe in a bar or something, but not for in the car. You have cans dont you.

Many parts of the world use crown top bottles for water and pop.

Without the Bottle Opener there's no effective cup holder  :grin:

Mine didnt come with it, but i 'acquired' one, used it quite a few times, mostly when camping, to be honest though the main reason you want one is that it divides the space into two cup sized holes rather than 1 big one.
