Default Custom CRX cup-holders!

I thought about putting this in the Appearance forum, but I figured this is slightly technical, and it only really applies to EF people anyway.

I took the cup-holders out of a 96 LS integra and custom mounted them in my CRX console. I removed the ashtray and cig lighter with my dremel, sanded everything down, mounted the cup-holders, and gave the whole thing a coat of black paint. I used plastic epoxy to glue it in place, and also some zip-ties for extra strength, which I also glued in place. It's very sturdy. I think it looks pretty stock, which is what I was going for.

Here's a vid:
Cup-holders in action!

I actually did this a while ago, but I was looking through my old videos, saw this, and thought you guys might enjoy it.

Looks real good, very stock looking. It looks so much better than the ones that are in the pocket thing above the ashtray and cig lighter. Good job and im looking for an integra cup holder right now

Thanks for the guys. It was really easy to do. I have some pictures of how I did it, but I'll have to see if I can find them.

Great work, but I'm quite fond of the cut holder Honda gave the Crx. I mean, the space between the E-brake handle and my seat. But yeah, your's looks and works much better. Cool deal man
