I got tired of trying to shift and hold my drinks at the same time...I hate the way those tacky cup holders looked clinging on your door panels and things....so I took matters into my own hands and modified a cup holder for my crx. Here is the results....

Pretty darn cool, where did you get the cup holder?

 

it's a cool idea...

but do you have a problem shifting to 3rd/5th when you have the cup holder extended?

 

I pulled the cup holder from a 90 integra and I have no problem with shifting. I think having a short shifter with a shorter throw helps too...

 

thats a pretty cool idea, although not many people are gonna be able to do it here, cause not many of us have the optionl center consoles in out hatch's .
I have one, but i dont have the audio part of it, so i cant really make anything like that work

on the idea though

 

I only see 3 red x's.

 

Ya, red X's... fix the pics, I am very interested!

 

I use the built in crx cupholder...

What, you don't know where it is? Its right between your seat and the handbrake, it takes bottles and cans pretty easily, soft drink paper/plastic cups have to be drained a little so they don't splash.

 

if you can't see the pix...here are some links to the images above..

Oh..and about the built in cup holder...I don't have that any more because I have the dish like thing that comes with a 96-99 arm rest.

LMAO I use that also. gotta wipe up the spills from a can if you only take a sip.

 

Cool setup...thanks for fixing the pix

 

i use a 94+ integra console and armrest.. so I get to hold my drinks, and rest my arm!

I sell them too if you are intersted. check the sig!

 

I also use a GSR armrest in my CRX, works good as a drink holder, I slap the drinks inside the armrest console...

 

lol, so classic...the ebrake and seat cup holder. i think everyone w/ an ef has done that @ one time or another. but i really like the ls cupholder...i'll do that sometime soon.

WERD.
thats what I've been doing in my last three crx's, sometimes the cans get away though so in my last rex I put one of those adjustable cup holders on either side of the cupholder, works great!

Your fellow y-49er,

And the best part is it comes with the car stock. At no extra charge. And the color matches perfectly. hahaha

Use it all the time. Woorks great, but it squishes most of what goes in there.

Very nice DIY BTW.

 

Wheres the write up on this?

 

yeah, i used the built in cup holder all the time too ... had an unopened can drink in there one day and forgot to take it with me when i went in for class ... 4 hours later when i come out my entire interior is coated w/ caramel coloring took alotta work to get that cleaned up.

prolly looked just like that new MINI commercial.
Where the kid opens the soda can and coats the inside of the car, when it explodes. haha. Then wipes a clear spot on the windshield and drives away.LOL

 

This is exactly what I was thinking about doing i jyst didnt know what to get the cup holder out of!! But otherwise yeah I am guilty of using the built in cupholder in all of my crx's as well.
