I bought the cup holder from amazon and cut off the bottom. The cup holder had sharp edges that dug into the center console, so it was no good. The cup holder and fire extinguisher bracket are screwed to a piece of plywood. The wood is sprayed with some truck bed liner to get some texture.

I had it all wrong. Untill I took the time to understand the instructions, I was jamming my drink in the phone slot.Originally Posted by DMC VIN 6639

I generally only needed one cup holder. I don’t like the ones that you reach to reach back for, or that flip out etc. I donated the ashtray fitting. Got a thick plate of aluminum and fitted to the opening. Drilled a 3 inch hole and then bought the perfect poker table SS drop in cup holder off a poker website. Sanded it to a brushed finish. It holds a can or medium sized drinks. Enjoy

Very elegant. Hey, DeloreanGo, are you reading this?
It is funny how society has progressed. As a kid of the 70s and 80s it seemed designers made sure each passenger had access to a damn ashtray.

I've designed a fully modular, interchangable cupholder system that allows for 2 "coke" can sizes, a big gulp size, iphone holder, and generalized storage that all uses factory mounting and looks perfectly in the design conceit of the original car.
I'm hoping that DMC lets me know if they want to go with it or no, otherwise I'll show you all the setup soonish.
It doesn't interfere with shifting or anything aesthetically and matches pretty darn flawlessly.
