Default Cup holder?

Hi all,
My first real post and an odd one. Who would you recommend for an elegant, non permanent cup holder? Was thinking there has to be something that rides over the center hump, forward of the shifter aka saddle style but I am not sure what is out there? Considered creating a bespoke unit in my shop then have it of course trimmed in matching leather lol.

thoughts?

thank you

VW Passat cup holder If you can find one. Fits perfectly, aesthetically appealing and no drilling. Perfect.

I have this in my '95 C2... perfect fit and can be swapped out easily and returned to original.

What are your thoughts on the color matching on this? Seems like the 993 center console trim pieces have a tinge of brown in the color when sunlight is in the cabin.

I have the pricey pelican one too. Very nice piece but the diameter of the cup holders is a little small. It also places the cups pretty far back requiring you to reach back to get your drink.

Thank you for the feedback all! Appreciate the choices. I really like that Passat model idea.

I have that one and as others have pointed out it places the drink a bit too far back. Better than nothing though.

Here is the factory solution if you can find them. Removable and in a good spot.
