Cup Holder Mod...

[malmed]

OK, I hated my cup holders, they would not hold my small Yeti cup worth a damn, so today I cut the bottom (smaller part) off the cup holders and it works perfect now. Only unexpected thing, I had to srew the cup holder in as it lost some of it's support, but for me thats an OK trade-off, as my cup now sits as it should... I simpley used a dremmel tool with a cut-off wheel to remove the bottom half of each cupholder....

If you drop something small in there, is it a Neverending abyss now?

But it actually holds a cup now....

That’s what I need to do! My 24oz Starbucks tumbler barely fits in the holder. But my stainless 30oz yeti doesn’t fit at all and it drives me nuts! It’s actsully not too bad if you drop something and it stays in that little rectangular shaped area directly beneath the holder tray. It’s only an issue if you loose in between that lower tray and the bezel piece that leads down to where the amp is. Which I’ve never dropped anything in there because the opening in between the tray and the bezel is pretty small. So looks like I’m gonna be doing the same haha. Do your lids still close?!

theres cups like that still sold, or you might find a few at a salvation army or thrift type store or garage sale. i bet they want 10 cents a cup or so.
