I can't wait to get the replacement for my 2018 LC200...I put the stock one back in when the original didn't fit and have been envious of you 2016 (and previous) folks since

The 2008-2015 LX570 version was delivered and test fitted. I'm being told that fitment is perfect. @CJ3Flyer got the first one and gave me very postive feedback. Here are the pics he sent me. I am now in production on the LX570 verison. I should have a batch ready to go by next weekend. Unfortunately this part is wider than my main assembly line machines platform. I only have 2 large format machines here in the shop that can print this large cup holder and the print time is rougly 40 hours each. That means at best, I can only make about 7-8 per week. It will be a slow process to get them out to everyone and a challenge to keep them in stock, but I will do my best. I did order another large format machine that should be delivered early next week which will help with the manufacturing numbers.

I can only speak for myself, but I'd love the option to order/pay for one, and just have it arrive whenever you get to my number. Having to try and time it when it is briefly in stock is tricky with the rest of real life imposing... :)

I may do a preorder system but I first have to send out the new version to the 1/2 dozen guys who ordered the older version but have a 2016+ cruiser. Those we ordered before we realized there was a difference. My first batch that gets released next weekend wont be very big but the following weekend will be a MUCH bigger batch. Once I get the guys who already ordered taken care of then I will look into doing preorders.

Great news!
 
The cupholder from BH3D is in my LX. It’s not often that I can trump the group at ih8mud with regard to mods but for a short while I have the coolest LX570 cupholder, hahaha...

To anyone on the fence trust me, it’s a well made, great fitting huge improvement over OE. The grade of plastic is also an improvement. My OE cupholder tended to squeak and creak against my stainless cup, this plastic does not do that. In short cups don’t fly out of the cupholder anymore and it’s less squeaky...

Dealing with Brad was great too; quick communication and all of my expectations were met or exceeded.

EDIT: For the record the cupholder is uniform in it’s appearance. I sent the pics without looking at them closely. The smudge/shiny mark is something off of my dirty hands or something. The cupholder is a matte finish and very even black.

I had an interference issue that broke the plastic with one @bhicks cup holders for my 80. I emailed him to point out the interference, not looking for a replacement since it was very minor and on the less used rear seats; just an FYI. He replaced it almost immediately. Exceedingly good customer service!!

x2 for the pre-order option for my 570
 
Looking forward. Just placed an order for my LX no-close kid option.

My wife will be pleased.
 
Just got very positive feedback from @Sac Cerevisiae on the 2016+ Landcruiser cup holders. He sent me the vidoe below which was really appreciated. He went above and beyond with his feedback, pics, and vids to help me get this design dialed in. He tested both the single and double flask versions. Overall fitment is great. There is one tiny spot I need to adjust about 1/32" in height to fit more flush along the upper rim. That change has already been done to the CAD file and the newest versions are printing right now. I will also be releasing the 2016+ version with the 2008-2015 LX570 version at the same time at the end of this week. Now I need to track down a console from a 2016+ LX570 so I can make the 4th and final design. Here is a video

Here are a few photos showing the v2.0 2016+ inserts. As @bhicks mentioned, the shipping version has few minor tweaks to make it perfect.

Thanks for helping out your fellow mudders!
 
@bhicks I absolutely love the phone holder in mine. Best feature ever. Thank you for developing this.
 
I have the first batch of the new Cruiser 2016+ Cup Holders going into the spray booth this afternoon. They will be cured and ready to box up this weekend and ship out Monday morning. The next larger batch will be getting sprayed on Saturday and will be ready to ship out on Tuesday. The first batch is going out to the folks who already ordered the 2008-2015 toyota version and need the 2016+ version. If you are one of those folks please reach out to me now so I can set up the exchange with you. As soon as all of those folks have been taken care of then the rest will be stocked on our website sometime this weekend. I will let you guys know once we stock the website. If you ordered the 08-15 Cruiser version but needed the 08-15 LX570 version; also reach out to me and we can work on that exchange. I will have a small batch of those ready to ship on Monday as well. For the 2016+ LX570 folks; I don't have anything for you yet. Nobody has stepped up to loan me their console section to work off of. Right now I just need pics of the center console of the 2016+ LX570 so I can compare with the others pics I have of the 2016+ Yota and older LX version.
