    DIN cup/coin holder install

    After being inspired by Etlsport's cop holder find, i picked up a bunch of them from the logical yard. I moved my radio down and ditched the CD player. after shaving off all the tabs from the cup holder, I put the mounting tabs from the CD player in the upper din slot. the sides of dash panel need to be filed down a little, I left the fit tight so it would hold it from moving. the tabs from the CD player keep it from moving up and down. the only problem i had was the cup holder needed to come out about a half inch. I got a trim ring from a stereo install kit (a spare piece from best buy, got it free)and used it as a spacer. it's been in for two days and hasn't moved at all. the trays slide out fine and I haven't spilled my pop(yet). I do have 4 more, if any one wants one PM me.

    I'll raise my hand for one! Let me know how much and where to send the moola!

    How well do you think this would work in the lower slot?

    It's a little harder(more filing) and you won't get anything taller than a regular pop can in there.

    Hats off to Orion for making this mod quick and easy!

    It took me all of about 20 minutes to get this holder installed in place of my stock CD changer!

    Thanks Orion for everything...
