I'm in the UK and have a 2006 R53. I have just fitted the lovely armrest ( newer type OEM ) which means my rear cup holder no longer holds my Starbucks Travel cup when the armrest is down so I want to install this RealOEM.COM * BMW R53 Cooper S CUP HOLDER but BMW won't supply it as it's not available on there system to order outside of the US and I can't find one on the usual mini aftermarket websites.

There's one on e-bay in Canada but my interior is Silver so would prefer...

Can anyone help ?

You mean like this?

I got mine from Canada. You can also buy them in New Zealand/Japan.

Thats the puppy.

So it can be fitted on either side then ?

Did you get your from e-bay ?

How much are they ?

I appreciate it....I'll come back to you cause I think I'm going to better suited getting the silver one which I've found on outmotoring for $68 but there shipping cost to the UK is $158 !!!!...

I'm pretty sure my interior is silver so think I'm better off holding out for a silver cup holder but I will come back to you.

Thanks Si

Noticed the same item on their (outmotoring) web site. It looks very much smarter than the aftermarket versions and much more practical than the OEM UK one.

I also checked on another web site (woith picutres and fitting instructions) that the cup holders only come in one version but they are made to be reversable so will fit on either the left or right pillar.
