    GearSwitch E30 Cup Holder

    Hi all,

    When I first got my E30, one of the very first things I missed from a newer car is simply having a cup holder. So did the only thing I knew to do and I fired up the CAD program and designed one that I felt would be proper in our "Ultimate Driving Machines".

    After lots of hard work, over two dozen iterations, tons of testing, and lots of process improvement it's time to show this to the world and offer it up for pre-sale.

    The GearSwitch E30 Ultimate Cup Holder. Pre-sale / crowdfunding starts now, and shipments will begin in May. Pricing is $99 fully-loaded for early pre-sales buyers.
    Direct-digitally-manufactured, customized products for discerning automotive enthusiasts. BMW E30 Cup Holder, MacBook Decals and more.


    I've been working very hard on this, and hope that this is the first in a line of highly-customized, direct-digitally-manufactured products for our E30s.

    Thank you!
    Ryan Carag

              Would that make it easier for you? Anyone else? The reason I ask is because the Paypal processing fees are higher than the processor I have hooked up for credit cards right now.

              Also, I saw you're in Canada. I need to work on the international shipping details as well, at the very least to Canada.

                    Hi, it's made from a carbon-fiber-reinforced ABS composite.

                          Great product. A friend sent me a link awhile ago of rough draft posted on Instagram or FaceBook. I will be for sure placing an order.

                            Hi, I enabled PayPal in the checkout to make it easier for everyone who prefers that method.

                            Still working on the Canada details, but I'll let you guys know once I have that ironed out. Thank you for your patience!

                              Now my question is how secure is it sense it only sits on the existing center consul
                              Now if I'm accelerating, braking,cornering rapidly or just trying to chase my tail
                              Will this fall out?
