I now have a new line of folding cup holders for the Vanagon and Eurovan.
These are better and cheaper than the ones previously offered to the list.

These are virtually identical to the factory cupholders found on the
Multivan. They are just a fraction wider but the screw holes line up
perfectly. On a Multivan they are placed on the insides of the seat
pedastals (below each front seat), and along the left wall in the passenger
area. Of course you can place them anywhere you wish; just screw them in.

For only $8.95, these are nicer than the others I've seen.  The part that
grips the cup is expandable, allowing it to hold up to a 46 ounce cup. They
are available in a choice of colors:  black, gray (a very good color match
for later Vanagons), and Mocha (light brown, looks good on earlier Vanagons
with brown interiors).  And they're not as flimsy as the more common
aftermarket ones (which are actually Taiwanese made). These are
original-equipment Ford believe it or not (although not labeled as such); it
turns out that some Ford vans take the same stock cupholder as the Vanagon.

$8.95 each.  Part number CH100B (black), CH100G (gray), or CH100M (mocha).
