Default Drinking Cups / Beakers for Cup Holders

Early accessories brochures show a thermos type flask, with beakers, which fit into the cupholders. They appear to be stainless steel, or coated in SS.

Does anyone know who made them, and if they might still be available.

With thanks

Mike

Default What about coasters for rear passengers.

And have you thought about sourcing two chromed drink coasters to adorn the rear passengers armrest / stowage box?
Unfortunately, I can’t identify the member’s original post detailing his purchase from Germany. His photos certainly uplifted the appearance of the drinks area.

I have been unable to identify an alternative item. Perhaps 3D printing could be the best way to source a similar item.

I note that there is an eBay listing from Robbe & Berking re their Dante Coaster. But being finished in silver are quite expensive and I don’t know if their measurements are suitable.
Best of luck with your searching.

I think it was Parker who had the drinks coasters etc Bruce,
Or Jim Jamieson who used some from a Vanden Plas 1300

On eBay type in chrome coasters. Not sure if the ones that are shown would fit.
