Center Air Vent Retractable Cup Holder For Volvo 240 242 244 245 Sedan Wagon
Problem Solved
The original Volvo 240 dashboard does not provide a convenient modern cup holder in the central driving area. Universal holders can look out of place, obstruct controls or sit insecurely. This retractable center vent cup holder adds dedicated drink storage directly at the dashboard air vent position.
- Adds usable drink storage within easy reach.
- Retractable design keeps the dashboard cleaner when the holder is not in use.
- Can be installed on either the center-left or center-right vent position.
- Order quantity 2 if you want to modify both center air vents.
- Maintains an integrated, vehicle-specific appearance.
- Avoids the bulky appearance of universal clip-on holders.
