924-944-968 cups holders ..reviving one of my old thread

[Ernie944]

Was tired of holding my coffee cup & soda can in between my legs,so this is what I did,I call them hide & seek.You could drive around even in six gears & not spill anything,

Has anyone tried the cup holders from Patina? They look nice. A little pricey, but might be worth it?

You can say it again ...a little pricey ...and they are located against your legs on the passenger side.Rather have my hide & any days + the cost nothing to frabicate. seek

A couple hours in the shop with sheet metal, PVC pipe fittings, a bit of closed-cell foam, various nuts/bolts/nylon spacers, cyanoacrylate (super) glue, powder coating and assembly. Totally reversible in seconds.


Both installed on passenger side now; easily slid fore/aft.

How about these?

Pelican 911 Cup Holders

Would they work in a 944? Seems like a decent enough idea and removable for the more spirited driving.

I bought some of those to try that idea out, but they are way too wide at the base to fit in our door pockets. And when I trimmed them thinner, it just got too wobbly to be useful.

Thanks for the info. Good to know. Looks like I'm brushing up my old CAD skills this weekend and drawing something up to get printed.
