Exclamation 2nd Gen Common Dodge issue no matter if its a 1/2 ton to 1 ton.

I am talking about the those cheap plastic cup holders, I am looking for some replacement cup holders. Anyone have a website I can order some better ones for my 96 1500 Laramie SLT 4x2?

thanks bud, but im not looking for that kind, i need the one that pulls right outa the dash. I just want a replacement one. Because the bottoms of mine were broken when i got the truck, alot of people with 2nd gen dodges have this issue. NOT SAYING EVERYONE! but quite a few people do.

The factory 94-97 cup holders are okay, but the geno's garage one is much better. Replace the factory one if you want, but if you keep a cup in there with a lot of condensation, and then shut the cup holder, that condensation can leak onto the radio.


If you want to replace the stocker, check RockAuto.com

Call these guys to see if they have any that aren't broken. http://www.mintonmotorsinc.com/index.html
I love the cupholders in my 2000. You just can't jump the truck if you have a drink in there, my brother in law found that out the third day he had his when we got it muddy for the first time and he broke his. Some epoxy, screws and a couple washers later and it was good as new though.

It's a common problem with you 94-97 guys. Us 98-01 guys love our cup holders.
Have you tried ebay yet?
