    I've been lookin' for the Protege one for a few months now. Can't find one anywhere. They are the best. Love the hidden behind door deal. Very clean lookin'

          Here is my protege one. Notice how I filled the gap with card board. I then went and epoxied carbon fiber on the sides and front.

                im going to build one in my glove box panel by cutting a huge hole in it big enough to hold a big gulp cup & when you open the glove box you set the drink in it & im getting one of those portable ice makers to run off of a invertor & the glove box will be my ice box!! :laughing5:

                  I bought a '92 Festy last winter and it had a water bottle in a cup holder behind the e-brake. Turns out it's the receptacle for the ashtray. Works good enough!

                        i got bored today and was thinking outside the box for this one... 3 options


                        1, good for cans and short drinks, but if i put a 32 oz in there it hits the dash



                        2, good all around but a little close to the leg



                        3, it works really well i think, still a little close to the leg but it doesnt crush the cup




                        hopes this gets others to thinking, my idea came from my s10 doors that had a spot for a small drink in the door

                        92 Ford Festiva GL-to be determined
