Cup holder that isn't plastic and rattles for 2017 C43 AMG?
Hi folks ... I have a 2017 C43 AMG that I'm doing a bit more mileage in that I have in the past and am finding that the plastic cup holder (that clips in and holds 2 cups) is very flimsy and when I put a stainless steel water bottle in it, there is a lot of annoying rattling & creaking when driving ... first world problems I know :-)
I was wondering if anyone else had experienced a similar issue and how they solved it (an after market replacement holder in rubber that doesn't rattle/creak perhaps)?
I've searched around and couldn't find anything that I would consider suitable ... although I did find a "JOYTUTUS" cup holder on Amazon that said it fitted the W205 Mercedes side by side, but (a) the cup holders are too big to fit side by side, so it doesn't work, and (b) it looks really horrible and not very MB! ;-)
Any recommendations would be very much appreciated if anyone has solved this.
Many thanks.
