Duetto cup-holder
I am thinking of putting a cup-holder in my Duetto, but am not sure of where to place it. On top of the dash seems OK, but where do you all have it? Nice to have a Coke or coffee in the car whilst driving.
Thanks

I think a cup holder has no place in a beautifully designed Italian sports car, unless she is a beautiful girl holding the cup for me  ......other than that, just drink before you go, and stop somewhere nice if you're thirsty

My passenger is the cup holder. A duetto does not have cleverly designed "spots" to put stuff as a series 3 (cup holder between hand brake and side of console. Cell phone holder in the top handle, when closed, etc..) Walmart sells a type of cup holder that is designed to fit between the passenger seat and propeller tunnel, It seems that it could work, but I havent tried it myself.

My advice in post #2 here remains the same.
Anyway, here's what I did: cup-holder in an '84 Spider.
P.S., the power cord is for a GPS, not a cell phone...

she does not fit in a spider; as the seats are too narrow...
