Ashtray alternative option? F06

Been wondering if there was a non-smokers ashtray alternative and if so what does that look like and what part numbers would that be?

Anyone?

No alternative from the factory, but I've researched this and I believe the six-speed manual transmission version of the center console has a cup holder and that should be a direct fit into the ash tray slot.

I guess all we need is that single cup holder part # and perhaps any associated parts to see if that would in effect work as a swap in replacement... I'm guessing there is a trim associated which may not support the non manual layout of that section...

I might take the jump as we usually have 4 on regular road trips and cup holders are always used lmao! An extra one is ideal!

That's very cool! Did you just come up with this setup or was it from a previous setup documented somewhere? Looks very well hidden!

I have installed a tV behind a mirror before in my house but this is the mad genius of other folks. there is some creativity here with mounting the controls in a plate that fits in the ash tray along with the sepertion of the LED.
