I took a trip this weekend and must have used every conceivable feature in the car to try and hold my cups or bottles.

Actually, it's funny that you mention this because I use the ultimate cupholder in my MkI.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I took a trip this weekend and must have used every conceivable feature in the car to try and hold my cups or bottles. Among them: I wedged a bottle into the side storage cubbies, between the seat and center console, in the center console cubby, between my legs, but what worked the best was placing it in a sneaker on the passenger seat and tying the shoestrings to to hold the shoe in place. Success.
+1... but mine always glares at me first... and I can't get her to wear a skirt that short...

Actually, it's funny that you mention this because I use the ultimate cupholder in my MkI. My father has a MkII with the cupholders just under the center vent. Oh, he has the sport suspension. I put my cup of coffee (with a covered lid save for the pour opening) into said holder, he hit a bump, and lo and behold, the coffee spilled all over the dash and the center console. Man, not pretty. Fortunately, we were on the way to the auto detailing shop to pick up my car. We left his. I place my coffee in the ultimate cupholder. Any spills? That's right...just on the carpet mat.
Didn't you read the owner's manual? It said never ever ever drive with a drink in the cupholder! I'd
never
do that...
Also, it warns you that spilling hot beverages may hurt you. Not sure why they feel the need to point that out.
I always thought the Ultimate Cup Holder would be in the way, unless you stick it on the passenger side - which wouldn't work if you have a passenger. See my dilemma?
It goes under where your thigh is so there is plenty of room since your foot is extended out to the accelerator. I guess the only people that would have problems are the vertically challenged since they would sit all the way forward.
Have the ultimates. Works pretty well. Passenger one never sits right, always at a ****-eyed angle. No idea why.
I much prefer a big roll of duct tape on the floor as opposed to a sneaker. Wide enough to provide spill free stability, and the gum on the edges is just sticky enough to hold it in place on the carpet, and not sticky enough to be a hassle when removed. Ah the poor student days in the 924S. Couldn't afford ultimate cupholders.
