I have a 94 in the shop long term. It’ll happen.

Great news!

I've been trying to figure out what my options are with my '94. I'm pretty new to 80s (I had a 60-series back in the day) so I'm trying to get up to speed.

I don't have a useless cubby, which is a shame because your RAM hex mount is exactly what I'm looking for. And I guess my truck is too old for the ashtray replacement... or can that be made to work with some DIY modifications?

This is my dash:

This is what I did

I'm on version 2.0 and will print an ABS cover. I will eventually will skip the 3-d printing and have it machined from aluminum.

I like it! Very slick setup.

Hey @NLXTACY, do you sell the ashtray mounting handle + third leg standalone? Thinking about picking up the blank piece for a project (Late 80 Series Useless Ashtray Insert- BLANK - https://absolute-wits-end.com/late-80-series-useless-ashtray-insert-blank/) but it doesn't look like those come with the handle + third leg. Don't see it on the site.
