    As if you'd pay 80 bucks for cup holders
    It's not worth it.

    Putting your drink inbetween your seat/legs is free

            it would be great if the seller has a return policy. as far as pricing goes. thats pretty average for all the custom cupholders i've seen on this car with such precise fitment

                If you use the right cup, the car already has a cup holder on the top right of the dash. Something like http://www.thecoffeemugstore.com/Web...ctDetails.aspx works.
                The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

                  it apears to be a different maker. the ebay ad looks to be made of either abs plastic or painted aluminum.

                  the sfgadget guy one is made from vinyl over wood (which fitment is a hit or a miss in some cases)

                    I like that space for my sunglasses and crap.

                    Anyway, I paid a lot less than $100 to make my own version:

                      The ebay one is definitely pretty clean. Worth $80? Maybe not. Who needs cup holders?
                      Different strokes for different folks.

                        I'm interested, but his pictures are awful. They're so dark that I can't really tell what I'm looking at.

                          sorry but that looks awful.


                          ive been contemplating making a similar one, but just cutting holes for the tubes and placing them in without and weird fabrication work.

                              I am asking the seller to have more pictures...or even installation video...
