Retractable Cupholder Citroen C5 X7 2008-2017

Retractable Cupholder Citroen C5 X7 2008-2017 3D print model

Description

The Citroen C5 X7 generation, launched in 2008, was mercilessly mocked and criticized for having a rather silly cupholder located inside the centre cubbyhole, beneath the armrest.

This solution comprises of replacing the tray beneath the radio with this retractable 3D-printed double cupholder. It can hold various types of coffee cups, a 33cl can and small water bottles up to 0.5l in size.Please check the images and the instructional video for further info.

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU LOOK AT ALL THE IMAGES EVEN BEFORE PURCHASING, as they contain important information for use and installation, and this solution may not be compatible with your particular C5 X7.

This is also a 100% reversible solution, so if you like, you can remove this and replace it with the original tray and use it just as before. This model comes our of the printer as is, and does not need any kind of support or any kind of post-processing, finishing or gluing. There will be a video very shortly for any information that may not be obvious from the images. Please come back and see it.

It is highly recommended you use ABS or some other kind of filament that is resistant to heat, as materials such as PLA will lead to the printed model melting if the car is left in the hot sun.

A well designed item, even the person who 3D printed it commented on it. Fitted into the car easily and securely. Printing cost £38 which I’ve no idea on whether that was good value or not but either way it’s done (that was the only local 3D printer so a captive audience). It holds a can easily but is too narrow for our reusable coffee cups (from Costa. Not a fan of their coffee but the insulated cups are good) which is a shame; I’m wondering if an adapter can be made that fits into the cup holder to accommodate a larger cup (which would effectively sit above it). That’s a project for another time though, for now I’m just glad to have a usable cup holder! Would recommend. Thanks for taking the time to design this!
