I am wanting to ditch side-of-console cup holder retrofit...
I have only had my MT 2010 135i for a few weeks, but knock this with my knuckles EVERYTIME I hit 5th gear. Hoping that there HAS to be a better option, were these in-dash cup holders ONLY available on the e9x? They seem like a perfect option?
https://c1552172.ssl.cf0.rackcdn.com/76804_x800.jpg Does anyone have them retrofitted or know if it can/cannot be done??? Thanks! |

I think what I hit is anything that I put into it. I think it can be removed without issue....I’m more looking for a GOOD alternative to it. The link I provided in original post has Perhaps more potential than anything else that I’ve seen, but carving into glovebox area to test fit scares me a little bit. Surely someone has tried something for a good, realistic cup holder? Thanks for any feedback!

Or for the truly ambitious, a quest for NLA parts.

Agreed, and quoting this to be sure to say to check it out. Even with something in it, it's a reach. It might just not be correctly installed.

So after installing my own cup holder retrofit, I can see how, if you have meaty hands or grip the knob differently you COULD contact the cup holder.
I still think the BMW Performance SSK lever would be a solution to this problem |
