Finally got around to painting my front dual and two rear cupholders; one standard and one offset. I gotta say my wife and kids are definitely used to having cupholders, so even cruising around town they'll be happy to be able to have a cupholder.
Install on all these was cake, all holes/slots lined up to factory hardware. The front utilizes the factory bolts holding the console on. There's approx an inch clearance still between bottom of cup insert and trans tunnel. For the rear I got one standard and one offset. Both work well with my rear bench seat. My orig jump seats are in storage but I'm thinking they'd be fine.
As for the plastic cupholder inserts, for those that are unfamiliar, there is really only two sizes; the standard size that fits a soda can and then the larger dual stage cupholder, (like these), that has the soda size at the bottom and larger on the top. I put the standard rear cupholder on passenger side and the offset one on driver side. You can see from the pics, it fits different sizes well but the best was I tested my wife's shorty pear shaped, (she wouldn't like that term!
), coffee mug and it fits. She has complained in the past it doesn't fit her oem 100 series cupholders.
Definitely happy with these, need to test them out out on the road once I get my power steering done.
My biggest reason for ordering these cupholders was no drilling for sure, and the fact I could paint them and have them kinda look like they belong.
FWIW, I rattle canned with primer and Dupli-Color SS100 from O'reilly.
(EDIT: The rear passenger side I changed because you can tell from pic I needed to mount it under the seatbelt mount itself. You can tell the driver side is the correct placement)
