need cup holders for your E-Body?
« Reply #30 on: January 03, 2013 - 02:19:11 PM »
The plastic next to the seat job was available in stock at Autozone.

It might be interesting to design up an ashtray plug in version and have it rapid prototyped on a 3d printer.  Probably be pretty expensive though.

Guess I should have checked Wally World.
For $6 it's about the best I can hope for.
Got it at local AutoZone.

I just purchased that cup holder - got at it a Pep Boys.

Works like a charm.   It slides beetween the seat and console, and even kind of hooks in. 
Very stable and holds drink okay.   

Works with normal sized water and soda bottles/cups.

Drew here has a really cool little billet cup holder fit into his center console. It slips into an almost completely hidden location. Very classy.  Maybe I can find a pic...

I took a couple the car is still dirty from the desert trip, but I have several consoles so I decided to carve one up ,and I found this unique cupholder form a company called Santana , I did this 10 years ago so I am not sure if  they are still around and sure enough they are and they have some new designs , but the holder works very well ,only problem is it only holds one :bigsmile:
