For a vehicle engineered with higher targets than most vehicles, the front cupholders in the 200 sure do miss the mark.
I wasn't quite convinced that I would be satisfied with the 3D printed options that are out there, and after some more searching I came across this option for a rubber insert.
Shipping took about a week. Upon arrival, it made the 200's cupholders even worse. Something I didn't think was possible! The "ribs" inside the cup holders were too stiff, so the beverage container would simply be ejected no matter how hard they were pressed in. I made a few cuts along the bottoms of all of the ribs, and then did a vertical cut along 2 of the 4 ribs in each cupholder. Now the ribs are more compliant while still holding beverages securely.
It's working well so far with a 32oz Stanley, and a Carter Cold Tumbler. I still haven't done the official Raisin' Canes Lemonade cup test, but I'm satisfied with how much better it performs than the factory excuse.
Please ignore the melty quality of the bottom cuts. Had some time constraints at home...
