Not sure about you guys but the dash cup holder in my 2012 SD is a waste of space. Does anyone know of a replacement part that might give you more storage for change, pistol, paperwork, shades, etc..? Even a DIY job maybe..
Depends on what you have - I've got a 2011 with Captains seats and a center console that has an open spot and two cupholders along with a relatively large amount of storage space. It's not too bad.
If you have just the fold down arm rest/storage, that has alot less space.
I have the 2012 FX4 with the fold down rest. I just figured someone would have a replacement part that would fit right into the dash cup holder space. I can always DIY a transmission hump box. Those store bought ones are pretty ugly.
I use those cup holders continuously. Most that have a manual shift transfer case are looking to add those cup holders. I'm guessing that will be a homemade modification.
Ya, I have been looking around and I think you're right. I would love to swap the jump seat out for the full console but they are pretty expensive if you can find one.
There was another thread on here just a couple days ago, where someone bought an aftermarket console. It's intended for switches and radios, or weapon storage, but it looked good. And I think it started around 600, much cheaper than a factory console, even used.
