A roll of duct tape will work for most cups, plus its handy to have a roll of it in the truck.
I used a roll of duct tape in my truck for a month or so after buying a 3 dollar floor cup holder from walmart that sits on the tranny hump. It was way to long to fit though. Well I had to let someone barrow my roll of tape. So I pulled out the floor cup holder and cut 4 inches out of it with a hacksaw. I then bonded the two halfs back together by melting the plastic together with a solder iron. Its now a snug fit against the shifter boot and split bench seat. It is still a temp fix until I get some bucket seats for the truck and build a center console.
Ohh and since mine is a 89 I do have the pull out cup holders on the dash as well. But they are to small for some cups, mainly my water bottle.

Here's mine on my 86 Toyota.It is from a 90 Toyota Camry and it is easily installed with plastic cable ties on the bottom.I use the large plastic cups from 7-Elevens to fit the larger containers.Also look at my 2000 Tacoma Stereo player installed and yes the cup holder holding the drinks doesnt interfer with the 5-speed shifter.
