    Never seen one before in my life. If I have a drink that I need to hold, I make sure I've got a passenger.

    I'm with you though, doesn't look like the most stable of designs. Then again, I'm sure someone will buy it and try it and be happy with it. Just means that you can't have anyone in the middle of the back seat.

    yeh thats it, someone will be stupid enough, or maybe even smart enough to buy it. but then again, people did waste their money on testing out those fuel saver things, maybe some one could buy this and test it out. if it works, every vn-vs will have one!

    Nope, not mine. My car is for drivin' in, it's not for having picnics in. If I wanted to have a picnic in a car I'd buy a Hummer. Those suckers have enough room in the back for a full dinner table.

    if u must hold a drink, buy a bottle, or dont open your can and put it between ur seat belt clip, the back part of the seat and the centre console..

    u just push u drink down there, sorta were ur left elbow sits and it wont move, just dont have it open while its there, or if u always have cans go to super cheap and get a cupholder for ur vents, i hate them but personnel choice

    600ml coke bottle sits nicely in the centre console if you have the lid open. it can stay in there if you have to have something.

    whenever i have a bottle of coke, i just stick it in between the seat and the centre console, next to the seat belt clip. its just a real bitch trying to drive home with those mcdonalds cups. i think that a good VN/VP mod would be to modify the map pockets to hold cups.
