Thanks again for all the orders this weekend. We have a huge pile of 40 series cup holders going out tomorrow. Any orders that were placed over the weekend will ship tomorrow. Any orders that come in this evening will ship out Wednesday. Again, thanks for the support. Please post pics of your cup holders once installed so I can get more updated pics for my website.

Alright guys, the first wave of cup holders should be getting delivered today. The rest will be getting delivered over the next couple days except for the handful going outside the US. I would greatly appreciate you guys posting pics of them installed so I can get better/more installed pics on my website.

Thanks bhicks for the quick shipping.....installed. As noted above my console is installed backwards (PO), and when installed the top was made level so the bottom of the slot is sloping. I just used some shims to both level out the bottom and raise the cup holder nearly flush with the top. I like it.

Awesome pics. That looks a LOT more functional then that block of wood you had.

My cupholder arrived today! Fits perfect! Great addition to the metal console on my 1978 FJ40! Thanks for producing these for us!

So I got a good amount of the 81-84 cup holder console pics. The pics I badly need are of the 73-78 stamped metal console cup holder and the 79-80 console single and double cup holder. I have very few good pics of those installed.

 

[Jerryvi]

I will get you a photo in better light and send it to you.

Sounds good. Thank you.

This will be my last attempt/request at getting pics of the cup holders installed. I have now shipped out over 50 of the 40 series cup holders with about a dozen of each type going out. The pics I badly need are of the 73-78 stamped metal console cup holder and the 79-80 console single and double cup holder. I have very few good pics of those installed. I want some updated pics for my website so I don't have to use pics from my kitchen counter. Lame!

This post is for the 81-83/4 FJ40 guys. I have been asked numerous times to design a factory replica ashtray for the backside of the center console. I did create one and am happy with the fit and look BUT have not figured out the perfect hardware yet. The OEM design had some structural issues and poor hardware use. I want this to look correct but be improved in all the correct places. I just need to find the right combo of hardware to allow smooth movement and increase strength and durability. I should have that wrapped up soon. In the process of the design I had a thought. Maybe guys would like a cup holder for the rear seat instead of an ashtray. I designed something that converts the square hole into a cup holder. This is prototype 1.0. I sent it out to a 40 owner who test fit it. It's close but not perfect. We will work together to make it perfect. My question is this; is there interest in this? I'm not sure if I should make one single small batch or if I should make a huge run of them. I don't want to get stuck with inventory but I also don't wont to have an issue where I'm not keeping up with demand. Here's some pics of the prototype installed.

Also, if anyone has one of these 81-83 consoles they are willing to loaning me or sell me, I would be very interested. Even if it's in bad shape. The one I had was in horrible shape and cracked all over. Eventually it simply fell apart and was cracked right though the ashtray compartment. I can no longer use it for accurate measurements due to the severe damage.

Any interest in the above cup holder? Would be in the $30 range.

Thats actually pretty slick!!!

That would make a great little holder for my BT speaker
