Made to order, love it!

For anyone wondering if it fits a specific make or model of car I can tell you that for the price you take a chance and buy it and then use the trick I came up with, to achieve a custom fit. There are many cup holders in my 2001 Honda CRV but they are useless. They're all too small, and every cup, container, and bottle I put in turns into a missile when I turn it to the right. Since life with only left turns, where the bottles are protected by my armrest and therefore don't fly out, would be very impractical, I bought this cup holder. At first I was very disappointed because the base of the cup holder was too small to fit in my car's cup holder and would have been a bullet on its own. But then I had a MacGyver revelation on how to solve the problem instead of continuing to go through numerous brands/styles of other coasters and wasting a lot of time and money. For those willing to invest an additional $1.89 plus tax and about five minutes of their time, this cup holder can be customized to fit almost any car. I bought a small bag of Super Duty rubber bands and placed them on the base until they fitted properly. Now it fits perfectly, nothing dangles and doesn't slip. The fit is now perfect. I was also very happy that no one can tell I did an unorthodox repair as all the rubber bands are covered by the car's cup holder and none of them are visible at all. Think about it, since there isn't a standard size for car cup holders, it would be almost impossible to make a cup holder that fits every car. Try my rubber band trick and you can be very happy with your purchase. If the problem is that the base of the Smart Kup 808 Innovate cup holder is too big for it, then I have nothing.
