i'm thinking about driving my 914 out to moab for the red rocks classic this year and one thing i have been thinking about for such a long drive is the fact that i *really* would like a decent "C"up holder ...

i know, i know, the blasphemy! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)


i don't have the stock dash, so the converted ash-tray is not an option. plus, i don't like the stuff sitting up that high anyways.

anybody got any pics of other custom solutions they came up with?

My dad just uses some cheapy he bought at a FLAPS. It slips between the seat and the center cushion. It seems to work great.

Glad to hear you're making plans for Moab (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Someone had a cool one from a VW Thing. It fits the ashtray plug... I'm hoping they'll weigh in or, you can probably search and find it.

Andy, if you just want a temporary solution for this trip, this works surprisingly well (no joke):

Although, I don't know if it will work quite so well with combat boots!

Blasphemy! And from a German too!!! Tie him to a steak.

Semi-seriously:
I place my drink inside a roll of duct tape set in between the seats. If you can't fix it with duct tape it ain't broke...

The duct tape lifts with the cup (32 & 44 oz) sometimes. Other than that it works really well.

Best part is I don't have to admit to having a cup holder and the duct tape was already there.

Somebody at the Atomic Ramble had a pretty impressive cupholder. He was from Texas (Dallas ?) and I'm thinking his name is Michael (?) Did anybody get pics of it ? Our own Howard, upon seeing it, responded with "You've got to admire that man's prostate."
