![]() There is no actual "cup holder" in the door. What people are saying is the storage bin in the door is large enough you could place a bottle of water in it, thus it could be a "cup holder".

![]() Ok for the person who wanted the "cup holders" in the doors. The 5 door only has these in the front 2 doors. the bins in the back do not have a spot designated for a beverage. As you can see its only big enough for a bottle of water or similar, or like I like to use them for also, gum containers lol

It fits perfect with a little room to spare) ![]() Passenger: ![]() and the gum tubs that fit perfect: ![]() ... ~Christina~ Astra XR5: 3M Film,GID, Arm Rest, SRi Wheel, Tints (50/35/13), Pioneer Nav Unit, Debadged, Glovebox Cooling, VXR Surrounds, Painted Grill, XP Spoiler, HIDS, Footwell Lighting.

![]() A small bottle will. A 20oz Pepsi (Coke sucks) won't, but a 16oz should. It is the perfect size for a can. Feel around in there, it was clearly designed to hold a short cylindrical item.

![]() That rear cup holder is a pain because it tends to pick up any sand and grime and carry it directly to every surface that makes contact, making it a pain in the ass to push in.

![]() Gotta love this forum.
The cup holder in between the front seats is set too far back to be conveniently reached by the front seat occupants. My .02 USD. Mark

![]() Try putting a 20 or 24oz cup of coffee in those door "cup holders". Then try to take them in and out as you drive and drink that coffee.

![]() The "cup holders" in the door panels aren't intended for open-top containers, but for unopened cans and resealable containers like water bottles, etc. I use mine to store one of those containers of gun with the flip-top lid. Most manufacturers actually emboss a "cups=no, bottles=yes" next to them as a reminder. This isn't unique to the Astra.

![]() I find it funny that the 3 door has 7 cup holders, the rear has 2 in the middle and 2 on the sides while the front has the 2 in the doors and the middle one.
