Mods I have nothing to sell just seeing what people think.

I was thinking about getting a cup holder made out of ABS that would fit like the S13 center ash try. Would any one else be interested in this? If this were to happen they would be around the $30.00 range. They would fit one cup and most sizes including the huge glup super sized diabetic cups. They would also be black. Thanks.

Does this fit in the slot below our radio slot?

yes, they have multiple mounting points on the sides for different makes.

I like it, but the one you gave the link for went for $43.00 +$7.00. Lot of money for a cup holder! I know, I am a tight wad!

yeah, brand new ones sell for 100.00

well, I am thinking about $50.00, I would not even consider $100.00.

understand i happened too catch mine before any one bid on it. ive had it for 5 months now, just havent installed it. i fail

does it not just slide into the open area below the radio? What is so hard about installing it there?

nothing hard, just havent had time, been working 70hr work weeks and spending more time with the family. going to start working on car hardcore this week. ill put it in this week probably.

Please post about the install outcome. I have read that due to the angle of the dash, the DIN holders do not work well for our 240s (in their words) "unless you don't care about your radio!

I would think that ifyour driving a Stick shift. It would get in the way...cuz i know when i have ppl reaching for my radio and i try and shift...it just doesnt happen with out me hitting them out of the way on accident

I think what I was reading was meaning that the drink would spill out on the radio from the angle the holder would be on.

I also heard that it can't hold much except like those little energy drinks

put me down for 2

ill post pics as soon as i install mine in the next day or 2. put in for some time off work to work on my car.

The problem with this is that it hard for your to shift if its in the way.

Go to any junkyard and find a early 90's model ford taurus and they have those exact cup holder and depending on where you go they run between $5-$20 dollars.

the problem with using the the ash tray as the cup holder is the bump where the E-brake is grounded is in the way. I find that a annoyness to me cause i buy the bigger size drinks and it in my way of shifting and i shift around.

The OEM armrest is kinda high for me and i hit my drink and my arm continously hit it.

I know im never happy.

But i perfer either using the ash tray or putting it between the seat and the door.

I say do it and let me know i might buy one

I'll be interested in the ashtray cup holder as well. I would like to see pics

im a little late, but here is my install. it holds bottle water and energy drinks just fine for me.

Can you shift with a drink in?

lol i didnt notice that. havent drove car yet, but im pretty sure i cant. ill switch radio placement...that should take care of it.
