40, 60, 70, 80, & 200 Series Cup Holders

[bhicks]

i'm glad you figured it out. I can't do a discount on etsy because of all of the fees. They charge me to post every item, every time I sell out (which is every couple days) I get charged to renew an item, then I get charged a transaction fee, THEN a payapl fee. With a 10% off on etsy I literally make a few cents on each cupholder. My website is ran and owned by me, so I don't charge myself fees, which allows me to run the discount. For those of you wondering what the coupon box looks like; here you go.

I'd ditch etsy....wife will love these. The lack of cupholders is the only gripe she has with the Lexus. Other than me stealing it every once in awhile.

I had planned to ditch etsy, but for some reason LOTS of people come across my ETSY page but never find my personal website. I guess ETSY is able to get more traffic. I HATE all of the fees, but for the folks who aren't on mud and don't know about my website then etsy and ebay seems to be an option for them. I hope that my website over time will start to increase traffic to the point that I can leave etsy and ebay behind.

I just put both sets in and they look great and very functional! With kids and wife and their drinks we had a heck of a time finding room for our drinks/cans. These installed in seconds and look great. I even have room for my CB under the rear cup holder. Thanks again!

PS. Of course, I just brown/tan version!

I'm glad you like them and thanks for the kind words.

Quick question, couldn't find answer. Do the rear cup holders prevent the second row seats from being folded up? I like to ride 'truck' style when its just me and have second and third rows folded. Thanks!

There were some test fit pictures earlier in the thread and it looked like they clear.

They do clear BUT you must be careful when lowering the rear seats down. If you just flop the seats foward they will tend to open up as the fall and WILL slam into that lower tray and with quite a bit of force. I had a member on here do that to his on acident and crack the lower tray. I replaced it and thankfully he did that because I was unaware of that danger until he did it. It also clued me in to some structural changes needed for the rear lower tray. Those changes have been made. You want to keep the seats tucked in as you fold them down and they will clear but barely. The seats will just come in contact with the cupholder when they are fully pushed foward. As long as your careful you should have no interference issues.

So I had a slow week FINALLY. It was exactly what I needed to rebuild my stock. I now have a 1/2 dozen of every cup holder in stock. I can finally breath a little.

Got our front and back doubles in and installed. It was a Valentines gift for my wife and her LX450. She loves them!!! Great product.

She is.

Got everything back in stock.

Sorry about the delay to get some of the cup holders back in stock. Our baby girl (kid #3) came home yesterday so I have been focussed on family stuff and only running a couple of my 7 printers.

 

[Dragos80]

Congrats on #3

So I had some folks trying to fit those 20oz. soda bottle in my cup holders. The smaller inner insert makes the fit too tight and the regular TEQ insert that comes with all cup holder is a tad loose. They were just in that middle awkward size. A member posted his simple solution to the problem by using a beer "koozie" on the bottle. That fattened it up enough to sit more snug in the regualr insert. Making a design change to fit that odd sound proved itself to be a real challenge. I decided to stop fighting it and just take the easy path. From here on out ALL cup holders will ship with a free black "koozie". They lay flat and can easily be stored in the center console or glove box without issue. Then when you have the rare time of having a 20oz. soda you will have a way to make a snug and stable fit AND keep that drink cold. I know it's not the coolest solution, but why fight the simple solution if it works.

The first wave of cup holders just got shipped with black koozies. I was very happy with how well that held a 20oz. bottle nice and snug in my standard cup holders. Drove around on a bumpy back country road with no tipping over. Some times the easy fix IS the best fix.

So I have been out of commission for the last week. Any order that have been placed in the last 7 days will go out today. I am VERY sorry for delaying any orders but I have been in the hospital. On Wednesday of last week I started feeling ill. By Friday I was in bad shape. I took myself to the ER where they diagnosed it as an appendicitis. They scheduled my surgury but unfortunately between the time of the diagnosis and the actual surgery, my apendix burst which made the entire ordeal a LOT more complicated. I still have a pile of staples in my stomach but am finally home. I luckily had some stock on hand and have started boxing up all the orders right now. My wife will run down to the post office later this afternoon and get everything going. Thanks for your patience folks. I do have some of my cup holders in stock and will spend the next few days trying to get everything fully stocked again.
