Michael ChenDescription
This is a Cupholder for an BMW E36 Compact with an armrest. I designed it to fit in the square hole between the shifter and the armrest. The 67mm version can hold 500ml and 350ml cans (Beer, Big Energy Drink, ...). I also Included a reducer for smaller 250ml cans with 54mm diameter (Small Energy Drink, ...). I made it with some tolerance to be easily removable and put some duct tape around it to stop it from rattling (see last picture).
