  Got tired of my coffee spilling on the console when flying around the corners and so I decided to make a holder for it. I just cut the over sized hole for the cup in question with a hole saw and formed it up and drilled out the pop rivets and riveted it in place and put a piece of tubing around the inside to cover any sharp edges. |

Maybe you should be concentrating on "flying around corners" instead of drinking coffee. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)

Since I quit smoking 21 years ago, maybe I can fabricate one out of the ash tray.

There was a place that made the part that slides in and in place of the ash tray they had where you could place a couple cans and a cell phone for about $50.00
I just piggy backed off of that idear. |

Garold did something involving a store bought cup holder and the ash tray awhile ago.

I made a cup holder from two PVC plubling parts. Sits on the flow within easy reach and the weight of the PVC prevents tipping...
I like the holder above where it attaches to the ash tray base better ! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Attached image(s)
