Let me see your cup holders!

Many years ago I saw articulating cup holders in my buddies heep. they were basically metal baskets that would swivel in an X and Y fashion. Anybody seen em'? I thinking back to the early 80's and that truck was a POS then so these things must have een from the 70's.

Any other cool cup holders out there? Let me see em'!! --Kenn

Sounds like bar-bouys - got a couple in my 40 - great for 12 oz cans but not big enough for water bottles, big gulps, etc. look like these - ebay item 4650377211. BTW, that's a good price - paid lots more for mine from boating supplier many years ago.

silly, everybody knows that the best cup holder you can get is a duct tape roll on the tranny hump

I second the duct tape roll. Its inexpensive and you never know when you may need it to serve dual purposes. Also some one once said if you double them up it is perfect for a Venti size latee...

Articulating cup holders can be found at marine (boat) supply houses. They're a common item for boats.

I use a pair of black nylon fabric strap-on cupholders I found at 4 Wheel Parts. These have two straps that are more than long enough to wrap around roll bars. I don't remember who made them or the price.
