heres one as an example!!

crazy 4 quid postage for a bit of plastic

my mate fitted one of those to his Celica after he got rid of the Toyota double-din thing... works really well, and they look good too.. the storage space is an obvious plus!

You could have either have this fitted or a CD storage bit that the same seller sometimes has on auction. see http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... gory=63691

The original equipment is Clarion - I still have my cassette radio in the loft.

Ian, tried to incorporate after market CD unit to original head unit as pictured above by utilizing DIN plug - didn't pan out - bought aftermaket head unit - 10 years ago. Still have paperwork from Mazda on original head unit and stamping on back said it was Fujitsu Ten, Model # CE-3430TY1A, model# on cassette door is 3262. Then again, perhaps Clarion is a subsidiary of Fujitsu Ten.

Anyway, real reason for post is that I would dearly love to get my hands on that cup holder appointment. If those pictures are a true indication, than it goes right into an existing single din openning - correct? Didn't even know such an item existed. Any leads on tracking one down would be much appreciated. Would definitely be a much better drive to work in the morning with my favourite cup of "Joe" in a proper holder. Thanks and Cheers.

I need a cubby hole in mine there too now, had a HU lying around the house for ages (previous car used some weird setup, that it didn't fit in!)

so now it fits, (tried it... it slides in fine) so now I have only a 1 Din ugly hole... cubby hole will be good for that, esp if its deep.. for CD holding purposes

HU?????
Are those DIN cup holder unit's a popular / available item to get in the UK? Would really, really, really like to get my hands on one. Typical Canuck - always carrying a travel mug with our favourite coffee....LOL

HU = Head Unit.. my CD player.. sorry, guess its not a common abbreviation!

I dont think those cubby holes are that common.. not at < £5 anyway, you could easily get one from Mazda, -basically you get an MX-5 one and it fits in the MX-3 perfectly, but they're probably > £20 from Mazda, so eBay is the place to go.. where there isn't a huge variety there.

I'm sorry not the cubby, the drink holder - are they fairly common?
