Looks nice but how easy is it to reach? I always thought that would be too awkward of a spot for a cup holder.

Josh,
Not quite sure what you mean by "best options and locations"? You have done some great upgrade already to your car!
We have a lot of upgrades planned for the "Dream DeLorean". One I really like is the center console storage tray. The arm rest is hinged and you can open in to store stuff underneath.
You have to cut the cardboard out of the area of the console and attach hinge to the arm rest and the console. Then find a shallow plastic storage tray that fits in the hole you cut out.
The tray rests on the frame.
As for cub holders, which the D really needs today, this gets much more complicated. Here is what we have planned.
Remove the "key tray" at the end of the console. Widen the area. Custom 3D print 2 cup holders to fit down into this space and rest on the frame. Finish with black wrinkle paint (which really works well) to match grain in the car.
Window switches? Ryan and I like the brushed SS ones that illumination.
Of course, we have a lot of other technical upgrades planned. (e.g. K. Krimm's dashboard - bar screen-Great work K.K!)
Construction was supposed to start this month, but remodeling of parts of the LR for this years Chicago Midwest Delorean Picnic (August 19th) has taken precedence- since we plan
on a number of video presentations. (Already had this capability for the DeLorean Weekend in Las Vegas.) Work in the Dream Delorean is Now it is planned to start in April.
