    Default I want a CUPHOLDER!!!

    As said above, i want a cupholder for my VN. Has anyone got any good ideas for a spot to put one? I'm not having one hang on my air con vents, just so it can fall off.

    I am considering moving the power window switches to where the ash try is, and making some up, or adapting VY? ones to fit in the centre console there.
    I'm sure someone would have done it before and might be able to give you a pic.

    Otherwise there is always the ones you can buy from Supercheap etc that fit in a DIN sized slot. They might fit under the Cd player

    One on the Air-con vent would be the best spot, turn the air-con on to help keep your beer nice and chilled

    Nope. No smoking, no eating, no drinking. I have yellow leather VX SS bucket seats in the front of my car, immaculate VN calais rear bench. All my carpet, door trims, seats are immaculate with no stains or anything.

    They are staying that way.

    i spend way too many hours in my car to worry about spilling a drink or getting pie crumbs on the seat. i try not to let it happen but if it does, no drama, it cleans off. i just sit my cup by the handbrake on top of some of that grippy no-slip rubber matting stuff they sell by the roll. as long as i make no sudden moves its all good.

    come on, be nice to cobez, rooting in a car is one thing, getting maccas through it is another.

    as for cup holders, i just use the centre console. open the top, drop in the can and close it again.

    I don't need to, i have my bedroom, or i can get a hotel room for that or use the bonnet when the car has been running for a while. Nice and warm. I don't need to be a trashbag and **** in my car. That kind of thing is kept aside for hillbillys, yahoo's and dirty old men who pick up hookers. Like the old men they bust on COPS.

    you gotta admit, there is not better feeling that taking ones innocence in the back seat of a commodore. Especially when its out the front of her house and her parents are watching tv. HAHA

    I burp, fart and spew in my car while eating maccas.

    There was some model that came out with the drink holders in the center console.
    Caprice maybe?
    I want them. It slides out like above the hand brake.
