Cup Holder for s13 and s14 !!

I think it is well known that the s13 doesn't come with a cup holder. So I put together a video on a nissan maxima, to 240sx "how to" so to speak. Enjoy the vids.

If you pull the ash tray change holder thing out, it works fine to hold a cup.

Dude I've owned my 240's for over 5 years. It gets very depressing pulling out something that isn't meant for it. Plus it doesn't work all that great tht way either.

i think it would work fine on the bottom din but would just make it hard to controll the radio with the cups in the way but either way i just learned how to drive with one hand already so not a big deal for me lol

I just dont drink in my car unless its in a bottle. My car rides way too rough to even think about having a cup in it.

I'm a big fat f#ck, I'm always eating or drinking something, so it works out for me fine.

hmmm this looks pretty cool, might have to do this to my ride. i just don't allow any colored drinks in my car (no, don't turn that into a racist thing) only clear liquids like water, sprite, etc.

You actually only saw the first process applied to that center console. I only completed one of several coats, the finish product is actually much better than what it looked like in the video. It is a polished granite stone look.
But yeah its not rice, it reminds me of the Geo Tracker and Suzuki sidekick paint jobs that use to be done with an accented stone look. I grew up in the 1980's when that kind of **** was popular. Any way it is getting done to the gauge cluster bezel as well.
