Wait, give it time, I know someone is going to respond and then Arthur is going to jump and scream psych!
Actually after reading my own post it comes across mean. I gotta take more time to write, I still think he is playing a trick, with the tip joke.
Well, yes, "psych" would be appropriate. There's nothing like spilling Coke all over the footwell and door panel. Except having to wolf down a Big Mac, cheeseburger and fries without a drink!
You can fasten it to the dash, the door top, just about anyplace for a cup holder. I've never had a problem with the stock cupholders though. They seem to hold a large McDonalds drink just fine. They hold a 20oz plastic bottle great as well. But mine are currently full of drill bits, nuts and bolts, a fuse or two, and some change.
I had no idea that this issue was so...volatile. Surely I cannot be the only one whose drink has taken its own course and made a mess. It's the smaller cups that are generally a bit loose.
What I want is something that will fit into the existing hole but provide better latteral support. I'll probably end up glueing a couple of rubber cutouts left and right, about 1-2" higher than stock.
Adam Way in ownerbios defenderfriends had a link to a cool cupholder on his website.
I love how a bottle of water fits right in the dashboard. That leaves the beer-holders open for business. Unbelievable.
