Not a problem, Francis, you obnoxious snob. Must be nice to have had mommy and daddy's money to help turn you into an arrogant *******. I'm glad that you have the ability to turn a pretty penny but sad that you have the audacity to think you can rape people simply because you believe you make a superior product. Yes, you make a good looking product but I'm afraid the only thing up anyone's *** is your head.

I'd rather be "retarded", as you state, for finding a simple resolution to a problem than be a ******** for insisting that people should pay for an overpriced piece of my handiwork.

Yeah, my back seat works just fine for holding my bottled water. Other than that I don't allow drinks in my car.......stains give me nightmares.

Honestly I hate to charge that much, but $90 of that is in materials only. ABS plastic is rated at ci in rapidprototyping. It's just not worth my time to prep finish and deliver for any less.

This will be OT, but Cuzzo, you should learn to hold your tongue. There are potential customers everywhere, and i'm sure you've turned quite a few against you with an attitude that can hardly be described as cordial.

I'm sorry, but in my opinion you should never tell someone off for not caring for your product. If you do, I can't see yourself going very far in the future.


To the OP, try the backseat like they said, been working for me fine

Well... i do feel kinda dumb for not thinking about the false floor in the back cup holder. i remember taking it out when i was cleaning a few times but never thought of it. It would probably work for what i use. Also im not to worried about stains at the moment seeing as both of my seats are stained from the previous owner. I think ill just live with the factory cup holders for now. although those are nice, 200 is way more then im looking to spend for something i can live without

JMoraru, you have any pictures of that set up? I'm trying to imagine it but can't come up with what you are talking about.

Now that I have the SOS cupholder switch I lost one cupholder. It usually isn't a problem, but when my wife happens to come with me, she has no place to put her drink now. So I've been looking for a solution since this summer.

Yeah I agree, that false bottom is sweet, it will swallow most big cups, and with mediums, only the straw is sticking up. Bottled water usually goes between my legs or in the passenger seat. The cup holders being there only bothered me for a little while. I have never found the need to powershift when I have a 44oz drink in my cup holder. I have a wrist for a reason, I can reach around cups and be just fine.

I'm not even going to comment on the Cuzzo comment.
