Overview
The Rendition E36 Rear Cup Holder is the ultimate solution for adding everyday usability to your classic BMW—without compromising the OEM look. Designed to replace the factory rear ashtray, it serves both front and rear passengers while fitting seamlessly into your center console.
Built from carbon fiber-infused material, this cup holder is ultra-rigid, highly resistant to chemicals, and refined through hundreds of customer installs for perfect fitment. Whether you're sipping iced coffee or hauling tools, this insert adds smart storage to your E36 in the most OEM+ way possible.
🧃 Holds bottles, coffee cups, tumblers, and more with ease thanks to the 72mm opening and flexible cutouts for oversized containers. Top-side 12mm holes are perfect for pens, straws, or mini screwdrivers.
🟠 Note: Available in two versions—select based on whether your car has a factory armrest installed.
