Title: Cup holder ??
Post by: dw43935 on May 21, 2008, 06:18:26 AM
Is the console ashtray in our cars the same size as a Fox Mustang? I just got a Mustangs Unlimited catalog in the mail & on pg.19 there is a drink holder that plugs into the ashtray. $40 seems a little steep, but it is kind of cool.

It's not. It's an in-dash cupholder for an 80 Series (I think that's a Land Cruiser). I have the part # somewhere. It's spring-loaded, push-to-open.

This is the cupholder:

Please post the part number. I would be interested. Thats a nice idea. Feel free to post it, or PM it to me.

I'll do you one better. Here's someone who sells it:

If you go to my post just above here you can see some really good pictures of where it normally belongs in the Land Cruiser. Remember, though, that you MUST dremel out an extra half-inch at the back of the sleeve so the tray can extend out an extra half-inch. This is so the cup support arm can clear the lip and extend into the tray area. It's a VERY easy mod.
