  • !!CUPHOLDERS!!

    So I'm at the crappy tire, sorta looking for the ever elusive solution to the severe lack of aestetically pleasing cup holders, when I spot some decent looking ones that clip onto the air vents.

    Seing as they are affordable ($10ea) I chance it, and get a couple.

    Installation does not go well, and I decide to grab the instrument bezel, and continue in-doors while sipping on some tea.


    I eventually removed both the articulated vent grills and used the clipping mechanisms (they were intended to hook onto the grills) to hook onto the actual bezel.

    Anyways, to make a long story short, they look frikkin awsome! Seeing as I'm battling a moisture problem & I never use anything other than defrost as a setting, I don't really mind that my instruments are pretty hidden.

              I see pictures being "embeded" into messages all the time. I even remember reading a sticky from DJ saying something along the lines of: "640X480 is the max allowed rez".

              Notice that the resolution of all the "named" pics (read: cupholders!.jpg, hooks.jpeg, and mounted.jpg) have all been resized to 640 by 480 in an effort to appear all l33t h4x0rz and embed pics directly into my posts.

              This is something I still have yet to master apparently.

              That, and a custom avatar.

              Oh... And a custom signature.

              Wow. I suck.

                        I like how its attatched to the air vents ... that should help keep drinks cool in the summertime too, right?

                          Here's a tinyurl to my yahoo photo album: http://tinyurl.com/2b59un

                          They work awsome. Tried 2 grande starbucks without any issues. Frekkin AWSOME!

                          htchbck, they're actually clipped onto the bezel. I removed the articulated vent grill assembly. I did try them attached to the grill, but they stuck out way too far. Look at the album, I took some close-up of the "in-progress" mod.

                              but they are still right in front of the air vents though, right? so the air should blow over them, right?
