2nd gen cup holders?

what is everyone doing for cupholders in your trucks i have an 84 sr5 with buckets, it bugs the crap out of me that i have no where to make a beverage stay in one place and be accessible i want to get some ideas and see some pics. I searched all over all i found was for the later models. The main thing is space in these trucks, rather the lack of it im trying to figure out the best way to do this to make the most out of what i got.

Roll of duct tape on the floor.

You can even get it in all kinds of colors now to match you interior!

I saw some RealTree duct tape the other day...That's a redneck wet dream right there.

My 90 has the pull out cup holders above the climate controls, good in the summer, bad in the winter unless it's coffee. In my old 86 p/u I put buckets in it & I built a console between the seats with 2 cup holders & a storage compartment. It worked out really nice. I want to put something in the 90 for larger cups but not sure where to put it as I like my stuff to blend in & look factory-ish.

*has a wet dream*
mmmm
I had a roll of packaging tape and duct tape behind my shifters on the floor in my '93 for like 2 years. They didn't hold drinks ( I had the retarded cup holders in front of the vents). The tape held some various things, including, but not limited to: condoms, sockets, random screws and bolts, a rock, some dirt, a shoelace, etc.

I was looking at something like this: http://www.foreandaftmarine.com/23-116314.htm

Only, not white and need to figure out a graceful way to mount it.

In the little space in front of the opening center console, i just nestle my cup in between all the various crap in there like the chain from my wallet, the broken ipod, random screws and nuts and bolts that should be somewhere else on my truck...
