    Fun fact: the McLaren P1 has THREE cup holders. :)

    We're down to the last two Early-Bird pre-sale priced units. Thanks everyone for the successful pre-sale / crowd funding campaign.

        I want one of these but want to find out if it will install in the hole where my cassette holder goes or if it needs the console that just has the cubby?

              Right now the bottom is made to be a press fit for the cubby, but fortunately it's a separate piece from the top. :)

              Just to confirm, is it the one on the right?

              I will need to source one of the cassette consoles for fitment, but the great thing about "direct digital manufacturing" is yes, can do this at qty 1 for you as long as I can find a cassette console for fitment. Then everyone with a cassette console can have them.

              Right now, main focus is on getting these pre-sale units shipped out, but can look at this after.

                Great product!

                I wish it could be used as an armrest too.

                  Thanks! Actually, that's in the works. That rear pocket doubles as one of the anchor points for a planned armrest upgrade for this cup holder. :)

                      So we will have an upgrade path for the armrest?

                        Yes,. Also, any existing GearSwitch Cup Holder owners at the time the arm rest is released will get an owner-specific coupon-code to at least match any package discounts that might happen at that point.

                            Can’t wait to get my cup holder..
                            This is great news! You guys are the Shizt.
                            Front console gauge panel would be cool!
                            Thanks,

                                Thank you, and yes, a solution for gauges is on the road map. But first, the focus is on delivering the cup holders to you guys! :)
