does anyone have a reusable water bottle that will fit in the bottle holder in the doors? I'm sick of having my cold water become lukewarm from the heater blowing on it when It is in the regular cup holder
if so where did you get it, I cant seem to find one

I have bought a stainless stain water bottle with a screw lid from Walmart, it fits perfectly in the slot of the door and if you put the bottle in the fridge/freezer before you leave on your errands, it keeps the water cold. It costs only around $9.97 to 11.00.

The Kleen Kanteen fits beautifully. Made out of Stainless steel. And Eco friendly http://www.kleankanteen.com/ they are more than other but worth the extra buck.

you could always get a glass one.....
Try an international store.... like "World Market"
and go to the beverage sections they sell all those fancy waters from all over the world like belgium and hawaiii and stuff like that..... Im sure you could find a bottle the right size.

Try looking at your local health food store. I know ours has a wide variety of tall thin bottles in either plastic or metal.

+1 for the Kleen Kanteens. We have 3 of them and they work beautifully.

go with an insulated bottle. at least one of these is bound to fit.

I have the 24oz novara, never tried to put it in the door. Its actually an insulated bike water bottle, and BPA free.
oh yeah.. and for the health freaks that are crazed about BPA.... metal containers aren't any better... they have ill effects as well... BPA free plastic is a much better option than metal... A metal with a coating like latex or some sort of rubber is a different story however.

I would take stainless over any kind of plastic any day. Also any kind of plastic or synthetic container tends to get funky smelling. Klean has a plastic cap and is also BPA free FYI.

Two things...
1) I would never call anyone wishing to protect themselves from something that disrupts their endocrine system a health freak.
2) Despite past research I have never heard of any issues with reusable metal containers, and I can find nothing to support your claim now. Please explain and support your argument with links.

Are we talking about the same car and the same Klean Kanteen? I was about to post that I was upset that my KK doesn't fit!
The local bottled water they sell here fits perfectly :)

That is not a reusable bottle, nor is it likely to be BPA-free (so even if you can refill it a few times before it cracks you shouldn't).

The most common one... whatever it is, 27? I tried it again and it fit, snugly -- I guess I was just too timid to scratch up the panels the first time since it was brand new.
I got a 27oz orange one.. fits perfectly on my sedan <3
I love how my school's bookstore randomly has it in stock
