Keep the blank cover.

If someone smoked in my car I'd break their neck.

was hoping someone would say a cupholder option that was only offered in a different country. I googled and found nothing, so thanks for all the replies.

Guess I'll be fitting a modifry cupholder right there where the cover is just so the back seat does have a FUNCTIONAL cup holder

will do, already put on in the S2000, looks factory.

And seeing how I have s2k seats and a black arm rest cover, it should blend as well with the cupholder.
