Does anyone know if there is a cupholder mod for a '87 Pickup? I really
want a cupholder bad and I haven't found much for model of truck. Has
anyone done this to their truck/4Runner? Thanks

 

walmart has the ones that are held on by the glovebox.....thats proabably the best bet. its what I use, costs like $1 for 4 cup holders.

 

Mine has blonde hair and blue eyes....

 

I use this all the time...works great. Bought it at Advance auto parts.

 

Same place as my 95Runner in front of the temp controls and vents. :pat: but better than nothing..

 

i use a mini van center console i bought at checkers for 10 bucks and it adjusts as well as carry 2 cups fits right between the seats

 

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.

 

haha.. man where do I get one of those blonde hair and blue eyed cupholders? I'm about to head to Advance Auto anyways I'll get one of those it sounds cheaper than the other option.

 

The pull-out units are only good for things you want thoroughly shaken, like margaritas... Useless except on the smoothest freeways.

 

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.

 

Thats the kind of mod I was looking for.. I'll have to add that too my junkyard list of things to look for when I go in the future. Thanks.

 

I thought I was the only one that had the duct tape cupholder. My nice thermos is a little too big for the factory ones. I have a nice big roll of BLACK duct tape sitting on my tranny hump to compliment my interior. WOOT!
