    I just use a universal holder that attaches to the air blower grill slots between the steering wheel and door. Works perfect! (also keeps your drink hot in the winter and cool in the summer )

    My question is: How does it know ?

    Must be a microchip or something, better hope it never messes up and starts keeping hot stuff cold or cold stuff hot. Also is it a wireless cupholder ?
    So I said to myself, I said "Handee"
    and this voice came back and said..
    "He's not in, may we take a message?"

    To johnny apollo, were did you get the carbon hood insert? I love the way the thing looks? Custom made or production from somewhere?

    There was a guy making them - I think about 10-15 were made, along with some prototypes like a complete hood - he went by CF1 but he's no longer in business I don't believe. The scoop is modeled from an earlier iteration WRX.

    Haha, please tell me you are kidding?

    Wireless?

    It is connected to the A/C vents so in the winter when you have hot chocolate you would have the heater on and hence the A/C vent behind it will have heat coming out of it, and in the summer when you have a lemonade in the cup holder on the air vent it will have cold A/C air coming out behind it thus keeping it cool.....

    Haha, I hope you were kidding

    yep, its a wireless one, i have a controller which is located on the centre console with a turn dial, nice and simple just an H to the left for hot and a C on the right for cold. Looks a bit like a household thermostat
