    How many times have you wanted a place to carry a drink in your rod but didn't want a cheesy plastic one hanging off your window molding?
    This drink holder is found in Hyundai cars of the mid to late '90s. It's spring loaded and pushes in to be out of sight when not needed. I mounted it in the lower front seat frame which makes it very easy to reach. Look at the pictures and see what you think.
    I'll make some sort of face plate to surround the holder after the seat is upholstered. I believe it will look pretty neat when it's done.

    Did you guys hear that Montana just last year made it illegal to drink a beer while driving. (seriously) The horror. We may have been the laughing stock of the nation, but road trips were great......

    I think some of the Dodge minivan rear seats have a similar type
    of cupholder.
