Cup Holder in Center Console

OK, so this is bugging me. I have an 09 7at Coupe and the cup holders are too large to hold standard size cups/coffee decanters but too close together to hold large cups.

Is there, or has anyone found an insert that fits in the cup holders that will allow them to hold regular size cups?

Thanks.
David

I don't use the center cup holders for any drinks, more so for personal items ( wallet, keys phone etc). I use the cup holders on the doors and they fit my water bottles.

Apparently so. (I'll post a picture of what mine look like).

I've looked on ebay, etc to find some but come up empty handed.

Thanks,

Yeah although I feel like the door cup holders are going to squeeze my drink to the point of breaking, I've never had an issue and they seem to be suitable for many drink sizes. The ones in the middle are just too high up tho

I am missing this insert also... The only ones I have found to buy are new, I'm still hoping for someone to be parting their car.

My G came with them missing, you have to order the entire assembly in order to get the folding parts. BTW.... they insert/slide into the existing well.
