Stupid drink holder question

My lovely wife gave me a MB travel mug and the nice folding drink holder from Performance Products. Funny thing is they don't list it as fitting a 123 on the instruction sheet. Seems like this would be no problem just pull the door panel to see where the most "meat" is and then install. Anyone have one of these installed? Save me some time please? I don't want to screw up my perfect door panel by making a mistake. Thanks, RT

Screw it to the inside panel several inches below the inside door handle - far enough below the handle to allow you to actuate the handle with a small to medium size cup in the holder.

Hmm, maybe we all should follow the MB owners-designers philosophy on why the MB's did not come with cup holders ??

I think their reaction was " how can you do anything else while DRIVING???"
:p

Piotr,
I'd be inclined to agree with you EXCEPT when it comes to my morning coffee. Without it my nomally caustic personality morphs to something akin to a Grizzly with a paw caught in a trap..... RT
