Anyone got any ideas on where to get a good cupholder or an easy way to make a custom one to go somewhere in a saxo? It used to really annoy me not having one in my old sax so seeing as I'm getting another I am gonna solve this problem!!
Any ideas?

You can buy universal ones off ebay, not sure if they're any good though.
I always found the pocket at bottom of the door card just the right size to squash a drink into?

Tried one of those too not the greatest tends to get in the when there on the vent lol!
The door card is perfect for bottles but the main reason is coffee cups (maccy d's) before work in the morning Fed up of walking In to work looking like I pissed myself where I have it between my legs -.-

drill into the dash at the right size of a cup or take a cup holder out of a golf and stick it in where the hazard button is.

Getting more like it! Has anyone seen a custom cut out in the bottom half of the center console/coin tray bit or is it not deep enough???

How about just making the ones in the glove box deeper? Build the edges up? should be easy enough to do?

Plastic weld an universal cupholder into them?
Or get creative with some fibreglass

hahahahahahaa the ammount of times i have gone to the drive through and the passenger has put the drink in the cup holder and the second i set off it has gone all over them hahaha omg. you can buy crappy unniversal ones from halfords for about a tenner. bit shitty but there better than having drinks all over you hahaha.

Some one put a cup holder on the blank buttons in the center console {page 27 in the link. Scroll about half way down the page}
