Default Cup Holder Upgrade

Ok guys this is the must do mod if you spend alot of time in your truck like I do. I got the "cup smoothie" from Geno's. Man having my coffee or water and ashtray in easy reach is a blessing, plus a safe home for my cell phone that's easy to get at too. The thing is a little pricey at $36, but it is worth it for me. Install was about 5 minutes. I'll post some pics tomorrow if anyone wants to see it installed.

I'd love to see pics!!!

I ordered some stuff from Geno's yesterday and was looking at all the goodies, and was wondering if the cup smoothie was worth it.

couldn't pass up one of the magnetic fingers though..

I wouldnt be able to hit 4th or 6th gear. NV5600's would need a short shifter in order for this to work

Nut uh, they make one for you too.... Mine has about 1/2 inch clearance from 6th gear and more for 2nd and 4th. Look at the picture again, see the indentation on the front left side?That is shifter clearance.

It looks nice but I don't think my dog would like my stuff in the way of his seat. I just had an idea, do you know if it will hold water? If so then it could be used to put dog food in one and water in the other so on long trips I would no longer need to carry those cheap plastic fold up dog dishes that leak after you use them many times. I mean just think about it, your pet could have water and food any time it wants some with out you having to figure out if and when it wants water or food
