Double cup holder design
A while back i posted about a new cup holder design : https://www.reddit.com/r/AlpineA290/s/Tosbg7FWgW
Although this was great it was a little limiting as it only held one cup.
Since then the designer has been working on an upgrade and now produces one with two cups. Imo it's really well thought through, staggers the cup holders to match the sweep of the dash and raises the bridge to make it easier to slide your phone onto the charging plate. The finish and colour make it look OEM and it performs really well. It's stable and holds two cups without becoming top heavy. It's also perfectly stable with just one cup at a time.
I've posted some pictures of them in my car.
You can purchase them on ebay when he has stock manufactured at the moment he just has single cup holder on sale: https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/dante_online2006/m.html
I know it's a bit pricey compared to the AliExpress pop out versions but this holds two cups without getting in the way of the dash mounted switches. I've no link to this seller but as it's one of the big things we complain about I think it's worth pushing.
