**This is the only available exact fit rear mounted cupholder product for ALL E46 models (including convertibles)** 

Having a cupholder close to the shifter knob can be a bit cumbersome, especially if you have a tall drink while driving a manual transmission with a short shift knob. This design is the solution to that problem and allows the cupholders to be located on the rear behind the armrest.

Design feature includes: 

     -Two cupholders for diameter sizes up to 3.25".

     -Pocket compartment for your phone, shades, snackbars, etc. 

The cup holder is 3D printed PETG material (high temperature resistant compared to PLA, PLA will warp in hot climates). Installation is simple, this product will replace the entire rear ashtray/small compartment assembly and uses the same mounting points and screws. What's really the use of that small useless compartment? 

This design works perfectly for E46 center consoles with and without arm rests (as shown in the detailed photos).

Your BMW E46 3-Series will now have modern cupholders that work!
