Default Cup Insert to stop Dunkin from tipping

I have a 2016 F-150 Sport with center console, was there an insert to stop the to go cups from tipping, I know its trivial but it gets irritating cleaning up coffee when it tips in the cup holder?

Yes, they were rubber sides and sort of suck. They redesigned them in 2017 and are much better. I need to look and see if that is something I can replace the rubber with the newer spring loaded sides.

See if you can retrofit some from a 2018. They are SO MUCH better! Instead of using little rubber extrusions, which no doubt will wear out in time, the new ones use spring-loaded pawls. They automatically adjust to whatever you place in there and do a nice job holding everything firmly. My only complaint about this system is that they don't offer enough grip to be able to open a new water bottle while driving. I always have a water bottle in the truck and I while driving in my '15, I could open it while it was sitting in the cup holder, so I didn't have to fumble with the cap, leading to a dangerous distraction. Now, I have to open the bottle while parked and leave it slightly loosened.

Get a Yeti or Rtic cup. Both the 20 and 30 oz fit well in my center console cup holders. I really want to upgrade to the newer version for water bottles though.

Has anyone figured out the part number from 2018's for the center console cup holders? I know there is a thread about the bench style flip down console cup holder but nothing on captain chair flow through console cup holder.
