Easy solution would be to keep the small drink holder and buy smaller drinks. Why buy into the marketing BS that "Bigger is better"? Do you really need a drink that large?

IMO the only drink that should come that large is a beer. That is not something that you need to have on hand while driving ether.









I'm sure someone will chime in and help you figure something out!

You're Welcome!

Now if know one answers this with a serious answer, what are you going to do? You may have to come up with a solution by yourself! Hopefully you can use your imagination and come up with something. Then post up a DIY of how to create a custom cup holder of monstrous proportions.

Good luck to you!

You can actually pull the cup holder out and replace it with a similar sized one, yank that bitch out and go to pick and pull. I think some of the older ford taurus models fit it, the ones with the adjustable cup sides

my problem is the cup holder is right below the radio and the ashtray. So i just want something beside the handbrake which is unused space. I do smoke so i cant smoke and have a drink. It blocks the radio also and like i said the best place for a drink holder is right beside the handbrake. I am also looking into maybe putting an ashtray and cigarette lighter there but i dont think that is a good ideal as i dont want to burn my seats.
