I've posted this on a couple other threads but have gotten enough comments that I thought I'd give it a separate thread to make it easier to find. I came up with a slick solution for replacing the stock ash tray with a cup holder that does not change the stock appearance. Here's a goofy video showing how I did it. There are a lot more details including part numbers etc. in my build thread here: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?s=&...t&p=2880139

great idea. I have a center console where the PO stuck two of these cup holders on the side. I would not do this, but it is useful.

I would not do this, but it is useful. https://www.ebay.com/itm/GERMAN-MADE-FISCHE...JUAAOSwLaVf7Hon How are those working? I need to find a spot for one more cup holder and have something similar to the one you have in my Amazon cart to play with. My plan is to mount it to a clip that slides over the edge of the center console. Same idea as yours but not as permanent. @ClayPerrine That's cool you are going to make some. Looking forward to see any improvements you come up with. One unknown is whether it will rattle. I don't think it will but might have to add a bit of rubber on the rear tab if it does. I'm playing with the idea of scanning the carrier to see if it can be 3D printed. I know very little about the process but have been very interested in learning. |
