    wire cup holder

    I am looking for a simple cup holder like the wire one that BavAuto used to sell - attaches behind the ash tray. Anyone have one they want to get rid of? PM me pls! Thanks

    If you can't find one or someone asks a high price. You can make your own. That is if you're handy!

      seems very do-able. weld sheet metal piece to pre-bent wire, plasti-dip, install. The trick is getting it right the first time so you're not swearing when you have to do it over again, and again

        I just made one for my vert tonight. Got it right the first time. Just take your time and have the can, cup, bottle there to figure out where to bend and where you want it to sit. I used 5/8" line that was 30" long. Just ended cutting off probably 5" or so.

            5/8 in line of what kind of wire ? I guess you could use copper since it's getting plasti dipped
