Review on Plasticolor 000675R01 Honda Holder Coaster by Jason Wesley

Revainrating 4 out of 5

They fit, but the specs are a bit misleading.

When asked, the manufacturer replied that it is 3" in diameter. I measured the cup holder in my car to be 3 3/8 inches in diameter. Out of the box I measured these coasters at 3.5 inches. I was expecting them to be either 1/4" smaller or larger, but 1/2" exceeded my expectations. And it's not very good. I wanted to buy them so I didn't have to cut them to fit perfectly. They fit my 9th gen chord, but the center of the coaster doesn't make full contact with the ground and the edges touch the bottom rounded edges of my car's cup holder. This is because the cup holder in my car has rounded edges (where the bottom meets the walls of the cup holder) and the bottom of these cup holders has a sharp edge. Thus, the cup holder is slightly higher than the bottom of the cup holder. Although they fit and work. Okay, and no one will notice, I really wanted the perfect fit, so I have to do what I didn't want to do: trim the bottom sharp edge of the coaster to match the rounded edge of my cup holder.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Requires socket
