i want to fit drink can holders or small soft drink bottle holders but can pick a place to put them.
I remember a few months ago some others had some fitted.
Can any one tell me where they put them?
i like my Coke a cola not spilt on the carpet or dash or over me

The bigger drink cups (like the aluminum coffee no-spill jobbies) fit perfectly between the Speedo gauge pod and the dash in that gap there the gauge pod sticks out from the dash. There is room between the dash and the window to lift it out. It works very well and no cup holder is required.

I remember someone had created some holders in that area to assist and make it even more stable. I'll see if I can dig that up.

Here you go, this thread has a couple cool cupholders in it.

I'll take a plus if that helps.

According to the Germans, real cars don't have cup holders hahaha.

I actually like not having cupholders, keeps me from messing up the interior and it's easy to explain to friends why they can't drink in the car.

I use West Coast Fiero's center consol. The aluminum cup holders are from Watson's Street Works.

That's a picture of my car that was advertised when I bought it. Sadly, the cup holders didn't come with it . But, it appears as though they're just $2.00 each cupholders from Pep Boys. I've got a couple but haven't had the time to try them out, they look like they might work though.

Holy crap dude, What kind of dash is that? is that from a grand am?

Also, anything larger than a can will fit in between the center consol and the seatbelt clip and you body nice if you don't carry around a spare tire, thats where I put my drinks

thanks for the replys guys!!
now i have a few ideas to put into place.
we don't have the large no spill drinks here like you'll do over there.When we were at the airport last year we bought most of the stock that the gift shops had of those large drink no spill cups, the hop keepers thought we were crazy.Now we have the largest no spill cups in sydney Australia

I customized The Fiero Store glove box cup holders. They just didn't cut it for hard cornering
