(To Neil and Pakfeifer) Center Console with Drink Holders

i just wanted to suggest one product that i think would be the most functional unit to put in every mx-3 on this board:

A Center Console with (2) Drink Holders

give it some thought. coz for one thing, cars should have this in this day and age and aggravates me every single time i do a drivethru only to realize that i can't even put my drink anywhere, and it ends up spilling on the ride home ... and no, i refuse to buy those stupid cup holders that clip on to my vents! i'm sure this item would be a valuable add-on, and as i've taken apart the center console before, i'm sure it would need nothing more than a moldjob ... easy installation. the most practical and valuable modification to the mx-3's interior no doubt

thanks for your time

Dont even need that, you have a few options in terms of cup holders

1 - Double Deck Center Console. Rare stock option. A second layer on the center console. Works ok, but not really sturdy

2- Standard lid with cup holder ring. Someon eBay right now:

I believe this one need the center console from the auto seatbelts mx-3. For what i've heard, the're center console have less storage room because it incorporate something of the autobelts, but it may have a section for the base of the cup. Never seen one in person really, but I believe that is what it needs

3- eBay "JDM" cup holder change tray. This will occupy one of the din slots

4- Cop holder/Change tray from a Ford Taurus. Very Similar to the above mentioned one. Should be cheap and easy to find at a junk yard

5- Found this, kinda neat actually. Should get my sister one for her Prelude:

Too bad they didn't think of the pop out holders until 94. Those double console ones were such a joke.

I guess my cupholder must be upside down or something, because when it opens, it opens into the back seat, and putting weight (like a cup) on it causes the the thing to fall into the back. I think an in-dash cup holder for below the the two stereo bays would be good to have.

Were they really rare cuz i got cup holders under my h.u., will hold just about everything and slides in when you dont want it. As far as the one in between the seats, isnt that were your elbow goes,lol

I have a 95 mx3 with the pop out cup holder. And if I pull up the lid for the arm rest, there's a piece inside that drops down for more cups lol. Guess you could always swap your dash out for a 94+ one.

also you could just make urself one... i think

cant remember the exact width of the arm rest console but all u gotta do is take a piece of mdf sand/cut out a curvature and jam the thing in there and u got a cupholder w/e size u want and its hidden...

or just get a 94 and get the can holders haha

I had the double cup holder and got rid of it for the single pop up version. The double was a piece of crap. It just sits in my garage now. Yeah well. Maybe I will sell it with my car. Does anyone know of any cup holders that can be installed the little cd tray under the head unit?
