Cup holder in a 91 sl500 ?
 
I don't think my car has cup holders in it, anyone know if someone makes an aftermarket holder that looks good in these cars ? thanks

hey now thats pretty cool!! I didn't know that cubby hole was for drinks---currently I have these cassette tape holders in there (some factory option) Which I will gladly remove...thanks a bunch for that website!!

EDIT: Ohhh this stinks!! that thing is $119, what a rip off for a cup holder that pops up. I'll just take those cassettes out and use that area to sit a drink inside of

That is pretty much what I did. Put a regular cup holder where the cassette holder was. Don't expect it to keep things cool though, as it gets pretty hot down there.:eek:

The one for the later model 129s might fit. I just sold one from my 96.

There were a couple members on this forum selling cup holders at much more reasonable prices. Do a search and you will probably be able to have your pick.

Chill, what are you doing allowing beverages in you SL?! I don't let anybody drink in my cars. No more coffee stains for me.

chillcat 04-23-2007 04:43 PM

awe shucks! I'm not that messy....update-I took those cassette holders out and now the cubby hole looks like crap, I think I'll just put them back in, unless there is a piece I can drop in there that looks custom/stock.

tecqboy 04-23-2007 09:15 PM

There is a plain OEM piece which drops in in place of the cassette pack. It's just not quite wide enough to hold a CD case, but it's nice anyhow. I wrote down both of these part numbers in my book, but only one is correct. I just can't remember which: 129-680-09-91 and 129 683-0000-RSM. Tod
