TheLoyale Posted July 25, 2007 Author Share Posted July 25, 2007 What do you mean there's a blank beside the radio??? You are talking about the EA82 series right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daeron Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 that space next to the radio is where the trip computer controls go in the GL-10 model, like so.. except, this is an aftermarket stereo install pod, WITH a cupholder that I retrofitted, with much much strange fabrication work needing doing using brackets out of another unidentified vehicle. The cupholder, and the metal ears that I used to integrate the stereo and cupholder into one unit, came from one car.. the brackets needed EXTENSIVE tricky modification, and that assembly rested on a bottom support that screwed into the backside of the faceplate, as well as hanging on by one top screw.

Bill90Loyale Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 And there's no good place to add one!! :-\ Yes there is. Go to WalMart. Buy a "Spillmaster Euro Junior" for about $4. Remove the coin tray below the parking brake handle. Mount the cupholder to the tray by drilling a hole in the tray and using a locknut and bolt. Replace the tray. Done. The spillmaster is adjustable for cup size. Mine has worked fine for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have the dual version mounted on the flat part of the dash in my GL wagon - blocks the clock, but thats ok - it doesnt work anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhise Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 I have one similar to this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SAAB-FOLDING-CUP-HOLDER_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ63691QQihZ020QQitemZ300105640747QQrdZ1 It's mounted to the door next to the arm rest and folds up out of the way when I'm not using it. Very convenient setup. -Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahag1978 Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Does anyone have a solution for a Gen1 BRAT? I'm using one of those cardboard trays from Mickey D's on the passenger floor. Looks pretty lame when you NEED a sip THAT second and the tray sticks to the bottom! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gloyale Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Yes there is. Go to WalMart. Buy a "Spillmaster Euro Junior" for about $4. +1 for Spill Master Euro Jr.!!! I screwed mine directly to my dash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLoyale Posted July 25, 2007 Author Share Posted July 25, 2007 What!! You screwed it to the dash!! I'm trying to go for an OEM look! Ya know, Not some back hills of kentuky look! Hahaha:grin: And if i would mount one to the tray where the Hand brake is the hancd brake wouldent go down all the way! IDK how many time's do i really need a cup holder?? I never use the one's in my parents 99 Blazer! I guess i never drink when i'm being shoferd around Hahaha!! I can't wait to go for my Licence tests!! I've got the cash and i know where i'm going to go! It's just i don't know how to get started?? Do i go there and say i want to get in for the semester or what????

backwoodsboy Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 For my brat..... this "back hills of New York" solution worked well. A standard "cupholder" plus a piece of steel that used to hang a stereo deck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLoyale Posted July 25, 2007 Author Share Posted July 25, 2007 IDK i just can't have it like that! Oh BTW has anyone ever seen a bug like this?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misledxcracker Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Ahhh... Bugs. I'd mount a cupholder under the radio like Daeron, thats about as "OEM" as I think it gets... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucky92 Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 I have seen bugs like that ..they are cicada. And BTW..this is Bucksters cup holder..dont ask me where I got it though cause I think it was from moosens awhile back.

TheLoyale Posted July 25, 2007 Author Share Posted July 25, 2007 Yeah i guess there's no other place to put one?? The only thing i don't like is it cover's the hand brake!! I mean i would never use it, But i'd like to have it the way it should be!! Maybe i want to much? Anywayz yeah i think i've heard about the Kakaydas?? I don't know how to say it??
