I've been reading a number of posts and have done searches on this site for info on the updated cup holders that are available through Ford for the Contour and Mystique. I know that we can contact Bill Jenkins from Lincoln-Mercury for them if we decide to make a purchase. But I have not seen any pictures of them. One or two posts I've read said that they are better than the stock cup holder setup, but aren't a huge improvement. I'd rather decide for myself, but would like to see a pic or two before making a purchase. Does anyone have any pics that they can post so I can see what I'm getting? Or perhaps any advice on where to find a few pics?

Thanks Fellas!!

This is what came in my car. the black part is held in with velcro. I think it works pretty good although some huge cups don't fit, but most do. Sorry this is the only pic I have but I know this was discussed in another thread if you can find it.



Yeah, someone beat me to it while I was posting.

I have the newer style cup holder for the drivers side, the one that is deeper not taller. email me at auiotour@comcast.net, my ftp server that I use is not connecting for some odd reason.

Thanks LUCA for the pics and for the welcome. I greatly appreciate both. Wow, what a difference the cupholder makes -- it actually looks like I can fit a normal sized cup in there! Ha! It's definitely worth it! Thanks very much for passing it along!

Do you know if any local places might carry these? Or at least places in Canada so i don't have to pay to bring them over the border?

You're welcome!
The only problem that I have with these is that I have to tilt my mug to get it in the holder. They're deep enough that the mug/cup never tips out of the holder.

Did the "updated" cupholders come in the 2000 model? I'm looking at that picture and it looks like mine. Just out of curiosity, does anyone have a comparison photo between the "old" and "updated" ones?
