^ That is for two.
I would go with the Ultimate Cupholder.

I have two of the ultimate cupholders, and they are nice, but they aren't perfect. I ended up putting them both on the passenger side since they kind of get in the way.

I tend not to eat or drink in my car too much, but on long trips water is essential... I think they probably are the best solution, the vent clip-ons are just absolutely horrible.

Question - you say they aren't perfect purely due to the fact that they get in the way, or also because they tend to cause spillage (or worse) in any kind of spirited driving? I wouldn't want a bottle of water down by my clutch and brake pedals! I am thinking of pulling the trigger pending your response. Thanks!

IMNSHO, the driver's side one only get in the way when you put too tall of a bottle in it - i.e. 20oz water bottle or the like (soda, etc.). Otherwise they are great - no spillage, etc. Mostly though, when driving by myself, I just put my drink in the passenger side holder. They're usually back a little further - just right up to the seat.



Yeah, yeah, I know.... I need to clean my floor mats - maybe this weekend then again....maybe not
