no cupholders?
what were they thinking? i thought my 95 cupholders were bad... but my 85 has NO cupholders? has anybody mounted any type of aftermarket cup holder? suggestions? :rockon:

I got something from Wal-Mart that went over the tranny hump on my old '86. That worked OK....
|
A buddy of mine uses an old hiking boot in his 1980 4x4. He puts in on the tranny hump right in front of the bench seat. He just loosens up the laces when he has a LARGE drink... :hillbill:
|
maybe people concentrated more on driving back then? :dunno:
like glenn said, you can find a bunch of after-market cup support. or be ultra cool and do a 99+ cupholder install. :D |

Roll of duct tape, fits cans and many cups perfectly. And a full roll has a wide base, sticks very well. And you always have some duct tape on hand :P

They do a retrofit dealy that screws to tansmission tunnel (98-2000 models) It folds flat when not in use out of harms way and has two slots. www.clairparts.com used to have them. David |

$1 at walmart will get you four cup holders that just hang on the glove box. It will hold anything but those really heavy 32oz.+ cups.

Except it was pretty flat - oh and sunny too. But other than that yeah, pretty much the same :) I haven't done any long trips in my truck (Pismo exception) so I haven't really had the need for cup holders but when I eventually replace my center console with an ammo can I think I'll be mounting a permanent solution. In the meantime I just pop the center console lid up and put my soda in there. |

eactly, auto is alright, but stick is really hard. i ended up opening the center console, sticking the cup in front, and put my chipotle bag behind it to make a tight fit.
i mainly use it when im picking up lunch or something, i need a place to hold it while im driving. not necessarly to continue drinking while im driving |

I don't know if this will help: https://www.yotatech.com/forums/show...ight=cupholder I haven't seen the interior of the 85, but I had a '95 and agree that the cupholders in that were awful. good luck |
