Cupholder Option - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #92775 14 posts Started by msk59
Hello All: My car does not have cup holders and as you all know, we love to have our jumbo cups in with us SO Please show your cup holder creations.

Thanks
Does your car not have the factory arm rest? The cup holder is hidden inside it. It looks like a handle to lift the arm rest but it actually pulls straight out.

dam! I am so scattered brain, looked at it and thought that it looks different but did not investigate it any further. That is the same setup i have. Thank You Sir!
^That. Although good luck shifting with cups in there laugh.gif

This is my solution to that: single DIN cupholders that were a factory option in Japan. Pretty sure Full-Throttle is selling another one of these if you're interested.

PEGGTS: The car came with a DVD Player, Sound Stream but no remote. It does have nevigation but it does not work and gives the message that there is no signal, even when the car is in the driveway or on the road. i have downloaded the Owner's manual for that model but have not read it in detail.

Riche: This morning it was a struggle to drive and shift with one hand while holding the cup of hot tea in the other. All through out the day, I kept thinking how I will put a cup-holder in it and where LOL.

The cubby/cup holder was stock on a 1993 Geo Prizm so it may be available in other years from ebay or in other Corolla as well. I personally hated it, scared it would spill the drink INTO my radio and it locks out radio and HVAC.

I do have a gps antenna. Im sure gps isnt working because no antenna=no signal.
It took me a few weeks to figure out it existed lmao, glad im not the only one. i remember opening the center console, and realizing it was in there and just face palming and laughing at my self like wow...

Also, you will master the art of Crane shifting tongue.gif
Or awkward bent arm shifting lol

I've been thinking of custom fab'ing some in the console itself and just do away with the ashtray, window rolled down is the best ashtray anyway XD
