Today after being fed up with the cup holders I embarked on designing a prototype. I completed it this afternoon and will use it as is for a couple days and then make necessary changes and tweaks. Thereafter I will have it fabricated and leather lined and bound.

The cup holders in the prototype arent the final, I’ve ordered 2 stainless cup holders from amazon, they have an internal led light and drainage.

Brilliant!!!! :rolling:

I once had a full Mugg & Bean Large Cappucino topple over (before I understood this specific limitation of the Jap's design squad). Gelukkig het die vloeistof op die kunsleer omhulsel van die ratkierie geval, wat los is in die hoek naaste aan die passasiersitplek. Geen skade, slegs cappucino-lek op die teerpad! (darem nie olie soos met ander ou SUV's nie!) :wink:
