Last time I went to the US, the drinks were so large in comparison to ours, a rear cup holder would be useless. More like a inflatable rubber ring sat on the seat!

I rarely drink containers big enough for it to be placed in an alternate location, and as I've been driving for 12 years and haven't had an at fault accident for 10 (knock on wood), I'm not stupid enough to reach for it if it's going to detract me from the road.

this should not be hard, honestly I have not done it as I do have cup holders in the back. In my mind all you need is the arm rest with the cup holder in it with matching leather to your seat. Figure out how to swipe them and you will be done. If you wanna go cheep then I would take the leather off the arm rest, maybe they have pre installed things for the cup holder to be added and this way all you will need is the cup holder I would start with option number 2. Worst case you go and get a new arm rest with cup holders

I have the fold out armrest but there are no cup slots.

Any ideas?

Thanks
So I know this is a 10 year post but if you fold down the rear armrest console and press against the far from of it some cup holders will come out like the front
