Looks good. I'll be interested to see it when installed.

I could have used a cup holder this weekend when I lost my presence of mind while participating in a spirited exhibition of acceleration totally forgetting about the big cup of ice water I had sitting on the console.

32oz of ice and water wound up in the rear foot well.

When you roll in to your local car show and have to sop up a big puddle & fish ice cubes out from under the passenger seat it makes you look really cool.

At least it wasn't a soda or coffee.

I can't sew so I made a bottom and top part and the seems are in between. I bought a 3mm chrome trim and stuck it in between all the way around.

Let's see if I find time tomorrow to install it.

That's nice. I did one a couple years ago. Did everything but upholster it. Then I added A/C.
I cut it to fit and was ready to finish it. ended up backing over it.
I was trying to copy this one below.

Not bad looking but I don't know about having speakers under my arm pits.
