Strange storage question

Post by coops1221 »

Hello all,

Been a while since ive posted on here (not that i actually posted much) but been a keen watcher... however, ive been looking on the internet recently, to no avail, for some form of storage that could slot into the Rocs cup holder – i like to always have sweets at my disposal when driving. Recently with a packet of peanut M&Ms on the go (ultimate driving chocolate) they spilled out and made a mess of the central storage – so crap stories aside do you guys know of any storage options that would be suitable?

Cheers

What you need is a nice bit of Tupperware, preferably in a colour to compliment the paintwork :p

Swap out the ugly moulding cup holder for the slidey top cup holder? It's got more space in it, about twice as much volume in fact, and you can slide the cover closed to keep the bugs away from your sweets!

I have nightmares when the Lakeland catalogue drops through my finacee's letter box. I can cope with Clippits now but the knife that's only for cutting lettuce and the case for the banana tip me over the edge! :rofl2:

fairly easy, just take your time, we have full instructions :D http://www.sciroccocentral.co.uk/forum/ ... =38&t=1393" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; I found its worth reading the whole of that thread for tips before starting, I referred to about 3 different posts/pages when I did mine & then added my own tips to assist others.

Cheers guys – I must admit when I saw the cup holders in the Roc compared to the ones on the golf it just shouted – recession cost cutting – awful!
