I've got another idea I used the other day. I had a spare pair of tennis shoes in the car. Guess what? A cup or can fits snuggly in the shoe pretty well! The shoe is heavy enough to keep it the cup from tipping over unless you're taking a corner very hard. cost = $0

Since the forum has helped me with a universe of tips and information, figure that I make a small contribute with something I made just now.
Been trying to find a bottle holder that fits and at a decent price for a while (only water allowed in the car and only in a bottle). Most of the time and bottle just rolls around on the seat or floor.
items:
1) http://www.topeak.com/products/Bottle-Cages/ModulaCage
2) 2x wingnuts
3) 2x M5x12 bolts
4) L bracket
5) 30mins
Quick and easy.
Total cost ~ US$15
Adjustable and Fits my bottle of mineral water or my Sigg bottle. Too lazy to paint the bracket black, maybe next week.

That other one that clips to the door pocket is a nice idea, but $40 is robbery ...talk about capitalizing on a "Porsche" market, ugh!!

having tired of oil threads I think we should start a shoe thread....
Black Nike, synthethic fiber is best. I hate those non-stock looking Addidas.
Low top, padded collar..

Wow, totally forgotten about doing something like this. Customer of mine (yes, a cyclist) did similar years ago. Difference was he mounted it to the center console, passenger footwell side, on an SC.

Love it! The best part is the ability to customize it. Sooo many water bottle holders to choose from. And the bracket - easily available at any hardware store. So simple, yet so creative. Well done!

I use a roll of duct tape on the floor...Holds a tall Starbucks cup perfectly in the hole and won't tip...assuming it's a full,new roll of tape!
