You know some times its the cheap and easy projects that provide the most satisfaction. I just completed my drink cup holder upgrade, replacing the early 2000 model that was better known for throwing your drink while turning then holding your drink with the newer style with the side arms. I purchased the new holder from FTE supporter partsguyed.com for a good price and installation took only 10 minutes. I know its a small and simple upgrade but its so GREAT being able to use my drink holder again.

I just skipped the stock cup holder all together... I just bought one of those cheap 10 dollar jobs from good ol Wally World... I screwed it down the the floor, and haven't been happier...

Go to partsguyed.com pick the year/make/model the choose instrument panel/instrument panel/cup holder. You will then have 5 interior colors to choose from. Denim Blue, Graphite, Medium Flint, Parchment, Prairie Tan. I emailed Ed to confirm my color choice (Parchment or Prairie Tan) matched my year. I’ll take a few pictures and post later tonight. Here's a link www.partsguyed.com

Looks pretty straight forward. I always hated those stupid old cup holders, that engineer should be strapped in the passenger seat and made to take hot coffee in those holders and left turns.

They listed denim blue didn't they? If not get some paint and paint it. Me personally I like the 08 cupholders much better.... They come with the 08 console upgrade. Now I can have 2 44oz sonic drinks securely set side by side. Something the dash cupholder and the stock console could not acheive.
