this might be my next project if someone can tell me how they mount and the length of that plexiglass .
Can buy those at any marine/boat dealership/store, such as bass pro shops, west marine, etc.

They work great on smaller cups, like Starbucks; or a .5L Auqafina. I also have a cubby tray that has 2 can/H2O bottle sized holes in it. Perfect for traveling, smaller cups means less pitstops

They just stand up on the floor and the top part slides behind the plastic part of the console on the side. I bought one years ago fron girlinabox for $16.
