              JasonC - nice job on the cupholder!

              I didn't mean to highjack your thread. For those asking about the one in my car, here's the original post.



              I don't think they are being made any longer.

              Jason's looks pretty good to me and doesn't take away the storage compartment or the ashtray.

                  Good one Jason- I might have to give that a shot.

                  I was thinking about making one to replace the ashtray, but determined it would get in the way of my shifter for sure. The throw on the z3 shifter with the ix is way forward.

                  I still want to make a custom armrest with cupholder. That would make my day.

                        Sorry for late reply, i just seen this as i was just searching. I used Plasi Dip that you dip handles of tools in.



                        And this is a good bump for those who like to make stuff and don't want to pay an arm and a leg for one, that is so simple to make! Although there is another nice cup holder in this thread that i think the guy still makes.
