Got the front and rear installed and they are great. What about an organizer with phone holder that goes in the big hole in the front of the center console

So I stated earlier that I was going to work on this idea with my students later this school year. That may change now. I have been organizing this large community mural project and I anticipated it taking all of this week and possibly into next week. I had a handful of artist volunteers. Yesterday we started the project and I had an army of volunteers show up. Apparently I asked the right person for help becuase she took it as a personal crusade to recruite the world. I finished the painting by lunch time today and it turned out awesome. So..... I just had a ton of free time open up. I am taking the kids fishing and wheelin tomorrow but I still have a couple extra open days after that. I will start working on something later this week and get some preliminary ideas posted hopefully by this weekend.

I took some picture with different small size flashlights to get rid of some anxiety some people have regarding the size of that hole.
A mini maglite fits just fine on either end. Duracell 250 does not fit, the cheap gas station flashlight fits just fine on both ends.

again, thank you for posting those pictures. Makes my life much easier when others post pictures for me.

Cool!! thanks for the links. I didn't even think about a remote power switch but that is a great idea. I had planned to use my tax return to do some upgrades to my current printing system then I got a call from my tax guy last night. I HATE California!!!!!! WTF!!! I thought I had made a little profit this year on this little 3D printing endeavor. NOPE!!! Not only did I have to pay a stupid amount on income tax on my sells they then added a 15% self employment tax AND said I could not right off the 5 machines I purchased. 90% of my right off had to be "capitalized" and had to be spread over numerous years. WTF!!!! I also had to pay sales tax on a lot of it. I anticipated the income tax but not the other two. Did I mention I HATE California!!! My anticipated little tax return has now turned into me owing. I owe more than I made. WTF!!! did I mention how much I hate California. how can anyone be successful in running a personal business with the stupid amount of taxes in this state? This year I will have to make some serious changes in how I do things to have any hope of making a profit. I guess I will write this one off as a lesson learned. I think it might be time now instead of later to move up to Oregon with the rest of my family.

You need a different tax guy. You should be able to write off up to $25000 in expenses or up to your amount of income which ever is least.

I wanted to give everyone who put in an order in the last 48 hours an update. Have been in bad pain the last couple days. i was admitted to the hospital last night with a severe appendicitis. Appendix is being removed this morning. I will be in the hospital the next one to two days. I will try to get all orders out by Wednesday or Thursday at the latest. I am sorry for the delay.

 

[Dragos80]

But hospital rooms have wall plugs everywhere, you should be able to use your printers there.

 

[Dragos80]

I hope you get it, it's a joke. But the world needs cup holders

Hope everything will be OK and get out there quickly.

appendix is finally out but I still feel horrible. Right now I have a 103 fever and hopefully it will subside soon.

I need some help. I have now sent out quite a few of the new updated front double cup holder. The one with the flashlight slot. I need some pictures of it installed. I sold my 80 this week (depressed as hell about it) so I no longer have a platform to take pictures from. Maybe a couple shots from the driver side, a couple from the passenger side (standing in the door), and one or two with a flashlight, pen, and cups installed to show function. I wish I would have thought about the fact that I don't have pictures of my new version BEFORE I sold my LX450. At least now I get to start building the new LX470. It's definately never going to be as trail capable as my built LX450, but it will still be a fun build. I already have some ideas on how i want to build the bumpers. going to try somethign unique.

 

[bhicks]

So no takers on sending me some pics of the latest version installed?

 

[Dragos80]

Give it a couple of days. Easter weekend.

The one that's listed as sold out on your website?

apparently I was out of stock on my website and i didn't even realize it. I just forgot to update the site. I just updated my site and now have everything back in stock. It is the front double with flashlight insert that I need pictures of.

 

[bhicks]

So I will ask again now that the holiday weekend is over. Is there anyone out there willing to take installed pics of my most recent version of the front double cup holder? I need pics with the new flashlight insert. Preferably pics with a pen, flashlight, and a cup in the cup holder showing function and maybe a couple pics with it totally empty. Shoot me a pm and I can get you my email to send them to. You can also just post them here if that is easier. How about this; whoever will help me with these pics, I will give you 25% off and free shipping on your next purchase on my website

Are you still considering making one for the "empty space" right in front of the center console on the LC model?

Yes. I started working on it on my vacation then ended up in the hospital with an appendicitis. That put things on hold. I hope to get that project back on track in the next few weeks.

I haven't ordered anything yet and really have been spending my money on base lining my new 80 first as opposed to any cosmetic or fun stuff. If you have any ready to ship though I'd get those pictures for you the moment it arrived to me. I know this isn't what you're asking exactly but it looks like no one else is biting.
