so after spilling my coffee into my console for the gazillionth time, I'm going to ask y'all what you use for cupholders?

I usually just wedge the cup between the passenger seat and Pbrake. it usually works okay...but sometimes it doesn't.

about all I can find are the stupid ones you can find at walmart, that kindof hook onto the top of the interior door trim.

any ideas? pics would be great

I bought a wedge type for my daughter's old Nissan that worked well for her.

 

also, case logic makes a nice 'organizer' that goes at floor level in front of the seat rails under your knees. Probably hold a medium drink OK.

hey thanks for that! those are pretty good ideas.

Anyone ever made anything molded or something? Something that looks more factory?

I screwed the flip down ones to my dash.

I'm happy with them, but then again, I'm not too concerned with how it looks. It's more how it works.

In Ben, the G/f just uses the arm rest. Ben has the high-rise arm rest, so she just flips it open and keeps here coffee in there. That drives me nuts however because whenever I get in the car, I lean on the arm-rest, and usually wind up leaning on a styrofoam cup haha.

 

In Margaret, she doesn't have the high rise, so I found those little plastic ones that hang on the door by hooking into the gap where the window is. They are pretty useful.

I've got the second one in that list tucked into the map pocket on my drivers door then screwed into place ..works very well and it will hold a 44oz soda . But if you forget it's there when you close the door you get 44oz or soda on the floor(better than the dash or center console) I'm not sure how it would work on a Car with crank windows as mine are power

My dad (and then later me) would wedge the 64oz cups from 7-11 in between the seat and the brake handle for years... worked great.

 

The downside was stopping hard and having to hold the drink.... but that was in a 1992 Loyale with the high rise console...

 

In my 86 GL, the D/R handle is there... sooo it gets seat-belted in or the passenger gets to hold it

Here's an idea.

Mine

I used an adjustable one that was designed to be glued to a flat surface on the dash of my Loyale. Got it from pepboys. Stick a bottle in it and place it where the bottle doesn't hit the windshield and stick it down. Worked great for 3 years.
