Here is just about the same one

I'm not sure about the one I linked but my father and mine work really well except for a couple things. They're not made for "Lake o' Pepsi" large drinks so they won't hold those huge sodas that fast food joints sell. Also they don't hold tall cups/bottles very secure. There have been times I lost mine out of the holder going around turns.

Thanks Jeff, was thinking about those and they can be had at the chandlery store down the street pretty cheap. The two things that I don't like about them is that they don't go completely away, and they require screwing into the vinyl dash which I can't bring myself to do just yet..... or the door panels.

Since the insert is made of a single sheet of aluminum the cups will be held by the fact that gravity will pull the tapered cup to be seated snuggly into the holder. However you'll need some cups to see what size will work the best.

Sounds sharp and dangerous and RedBulls aren't tapered

I think I'm going to have to hit the boneyard tomorrow and see what I can find. There are a few factory options that are pretty nice.... The pop out ones etc etc

Two problems with that..... I don't think the GF would want to meet the mistriss and I can't stand either one of them for the amount of time with the proximity that will be required for the rd trip
