I have 3 extra right now for sale at the same price 68.00 each
I had a few emails but no bites on the last 3 so I'll wait until the end of this week before I post it on ebay.
Not sure if I'll be making more due to my schedule I might not have enough time. All the ones that sold and paid for will be going out Monday. so anyone who buys the remaining 3 will go out with that batch if payment is received by Sunday.
Send payment to buyitonsale at gmail dot com
Post your name once you pay so others will know if they've been sold already. Any extra payments will be refunded if I get more then 3.

Can't wait to get mine! So glad I jumped in on this asap. Thanks for bringing them back Clyne.
Question: Can we use our stock cig lighters instead of buying new ones from an auto parts store? If we did that there's no wiring to be done right since everything should already be connected? Just take the old one out and slip it into the hole you made in the cup holders? Just wondering if there was any fitment/wiring issues...

What you can do though is pop it out and leave it under the cup holder and route whatever accessory cord is plugged into it around the backside of the holder since there's tons of room in behind the cup holder. I did that on mine after I mounted a bluetooth display where the socket used to be.

It will go between the two cup holders on the top either on the back or front. Location depends on whether the socket will clear the console on the backside. I want to install it where you don't have to modify the console.
For those who have already paid you can send another paypal payment for that option but I will be contacting those who paid before I send them out.

I've pre-drilled the cup holders all you'd need to do is trim away the fabric with an xcato knife to expose the opening and insert the socket.Last edited by SFGadgetGuy; 04-30-2010, 10:43 PM.

Finally done wrapping, installing the inserts and test fitting all the cup holders.
Hopefully I can get them all out tomorrow before I go to a wedding if not they will go out monday afternoon.
I've received emails asking if I will be making anymore. I may make another batch with a max qty of 5 next weekend if there's enough interest. it would be another prepaid order. My schedule is going to be crazy after next week so those would probably be the last I make for a long time
