Cup holder to replace ashtray

Post by BongoBeeman » Mon Jan 27, 2020 2:14 pm

Just got my bongo amd a cheap mod which would be useful is to replace the ashtray with a cup holder. I know MX-5 fits but they seem pricey at £40, and have seen 3d printed on ebay for 14.

Anyone got one got one surplus to requirement, ot any exeprience of either the mx-5 replacement or ebay 3d printed??

These flasks are good and fit in the existing cup holders.

Keep your drinks warm for a good while.

You're most welcome.

If you cycle they fit the bottle cage on your bike, too. :wink:

Just make sure you leave about 1/2" space below the screw thread when you fill them, and don't be tempted to fill with boiling water and shake. The top will blow off. :oops:
