Dual Cup Holder options
Looking to buy a dual cup holder and was wondering if there were any other options other than the ones offered by West Coast Corvette and Mid America.
If these are the only two, which one do people normally prefer? Mid-America's looks like it matches the interior better (not as shiny as WCC). What do you think?

As I RARELY allow passengers to have drinks in my vette, I have no need for one. Out of those 2. I think the Mid America one is better, less bulky. To me they both look flimsy. If I were you, I would look at this one http://www.ecklers.com/product.asp?p...T9BAA8B6V42KRF
It seems like the best one to me, it looks more stable and is out of the way. Heck, I might even order one for myself.
Good luck

I have this one from Van Steel. Installs and removes in a few seconds, not drilling not sticky tape. Works great and is very stable.

I have one from Milton Isles. Great quality (not plastic) and works well.

Great cup holder. I bought it after someone on the Forum showed pictures of it.

Bottom line, I sent it back. In the car it looked horible IMO.

We make metal cup holders that attach to your inboard seat rail. They are out of your way, deep enough to keep the drinks from spilling and don't cut into the passenger's leg room like the two cup holders pictured above. And we are a forum vendor too.
