Like Dave I got two of the inexpensive brown ones from Wal~Mart, cut off the tops and drilled two holes each. For the driver's side using a smallpiece of wood (D.3/4" X L.2" X W.1 1/2") I attached it to the cabinet directly behind the driver's seat belt anchor bolt so the bottom of the cupholder sits on the floor as the base. The passenger's cupholder is mounted to the right pillar with a piece of 90 degree alluminum strapping just behind the passenger's seat belt anchor bolt again using the floor as its base. Two bottles of water sit in these holders always for both driver & passenger!! No dash disfugurement, out of the way with no movements and no spills ever in ten plus years. Sam |
