Cup holders.

I'm sure it was already discussed, but since i can't find anything on it... Has anyone done anything about the cup holder issue on the manual Camaros? Whenever I put a cup on it it gets in my way when I shift. It's a real PITA! I was thinking of coming up with a cup holder mod that would go on the side or something...

It looks good, I am curious if you drilled holes or mounted the LED's externally. I like the concept of your mod better then the plate over the cup holder with the lights in between.

I really like your clean look. thanks for your help.

Anybody know of any cup holder deletes besides the cloth one from RPI designs? http://rpidesigns.com/shop/item.aspx?itemid=1863

Not really feeling the cloth thing. I was hoping somebody made one that flowed better from the console to shifter.

I was thinking I'd do this but I've never used vinyl. Did you glue it on top of the foam or sew it?

i used a hot glue gun and spray adhesive. It was pretty easy once i got the foam to the right shape.
