<The ones at the link are the bulkhead mounted ones. The tray we are talking of matches the slope and contour of the dashboard and attaches to the ashtray lid. It holds two cups and has a couple of pen trays and a coin tray (of sorts) Or as I like to think of it... as the picture over the coin vault which keeps digi-toddlers out of the meter & coffee (mad) money. It very handy, my digi-wife wants one in her van it I ever find another one.ac
