I need a cupholder!
So I love my 850, but the combination of my morning coffee, no cupholders and driving a stick (no free hands to hold the cup) is starting to get to me.
So has anyone found a good cup holder solution? I found some dinky looking ones to mount on the vents, but that doesn't sound like a great solution. Im thinking of something to mount on the side of the center console or something.
Any ideas anyone?

nope.just the top part of the armrest where it is hinged.also,i think i saw a post of somebody putting a 740 armrest in their 850 and was compatible.
edit:not sure if a 740 is compatible but a s70 def. is.with smaller cupholders..BUT IT HAS EM!

Cool, gotta start looking for armrests then.
I also found this:

I guess that would also work if I ever get around to change the stereo to a single din...

Cup holder slides btween seat
Hi,
I dont know if this will help you, but I have a Volve 960 Wagon, I never knew i had cup holders till this little bitty plastic thing, popped out- well it holds a can of coke or a small soda....My solution found something at Walmart, it slides between the seats-mine is on Passenger Side it is a Wedge Cup Holder, this is awesome for me- I slide it more to the front and it will hold up to a SONIC big cup and I can put 2 in the cup holder , holds fine, middle slot for cell phone or whatever, im gonna try and get pix on site...hope this helps cost $7.00 at Walmart, in Auto section...erinjohn01@hotmail.com
