yea I was thinking of something like this, at least the ones I seen at pep boys have the slits for the pegs on the benches, and look to fit just right and they even have them in the tan for my trucks interior

which I really like

Now that I think about It more I had the factory cupholders on the front of the seat but they didn't hold cups worth a &$#^ so I screwed the adjustable one on the top of it

4sabre i want your bench seat! I was thinking about taking the fold down center console and cutting holes in it and mounting cup holders in it. but i do like the cup holders near the shifter.

I seriously think I will build a walnut cup holder/console to straddle the shifter. With a cupholder on either side of the trans hump.....Really see no other neat way to add anything without being in the way of something on the dash or doors.

I have one that sits on the middle of my seat, havent screwed it down or nothing, it works well

My 93 5spd has one in it. Sits a little low and forward for me. I bought a center console that sits on the seat, has a couple cupholders and gives me somewhere to stick all my junk.

most benches for our trucks depending on the truck may or may not have the notches/pegs

ive seen one or the other, mostly its XLT but I have seen some XL with the pegs, so i think it may have been an option type thing...
