SLK Cupholder.

[Plodd]

I have seen pics of an SLK with a cupholder in a small central part of the dash top. (hard to explain really where)
Mine has a thing here which pops out but it's just a flat tray.
Does the cupholder attach to this or is it a totally different part and can I get one?

TIA.

Tony.

It's an option on order - tray or cupholder imho - it's the tray every time - think I'm having cups and therefore liquid sloshing around my pride n joy plus I find the tray is superb for car park change BUT each to their own. I don't see why you shouldn't be able to change it aftermarket.

Pammy, Plodd

I seem to recall seeing a web link on here for cupholders dot com or something like this so if MB garage offerings dont have something you really like you could try it

I'll have another go at finding the link soon

Ah here it is: - they even have ones for a light aircraft !

Try your dealer, they sell cupholders for most models, I bought one for mine and use it daily.

But not it appears for the SLK.
Site says the trim along centre console is too thin

Before you all get excited Pammy forgot to mention she has a Gin Holder and the liquid doesnt stay there long enough to slosh round

Just guessing , i would imagine its not too difficult. Try and find an SLK with the cupholder already in it , make a note of the vin and call the parts department. If its cheap enough , buy it and have a look at it . Might give you an idea about what involved in retrofitting it.

It will either be a case of removing the console trim or just sliding it out.

IF youre willing to take the risk ..... if it doesnt work out , stick it on ebay. Someone will buy it.
