I just aquired a set of factory cup holders and was wondering the best way to install these in a door that didn't come with them? I just have the holders and no other part that I know of that is supposed to be connected to...

Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated....

Thanks :-)

Do you have a part# for those? And could they be installed in a 89 camaro? I assume so, lol.

I don't know the part number.... as I bought them off a guy, which would be your best bet. I payed $40 which isn't too bad seeing as they are only cup holders... but considering our cars.... they are a much needed item in my opinion.

That's for sure. The previous owners of our 91 RS had a fondness for Cafe Mocha and they spilled often, apparently. I had to rinse out dried mocha from the window and hatch switches (console, etc). And, wow, what a mess on the seats! It came out, thank goodness, but judging from them the driver must have gotten drenched.

We are using those ones that hang from the window channel at present. From the picture, it looks like a Trans Am part (?). We already snagged one of the Trans Am dash map holders. I painted it with black vinyl paint and made a cardboard template for drilling the attachment holes. Looks great.

You have to have power windows to use them.

I have a 92 Z28 350 TPI g92 ALL options, are these holes already predrilled in the door? Or do i have to do that myself? Also i assume that they cup holders where only available for trans ams correct? I would also assume that since it was TA only the holes arent there in the door? But the doors are basically the same, so anyways before more retarded questions...

Camaros should have the holes in the doors (same doors) but I you have a maunal window than the window crank will get in the way.

I have power windows, so besides ripping a hole in my door panel and finding a place to get these from(my car, is ****ing mint, can i buy these new anywhere? preferably black)?

i ordered the left one from my local gm dealer, so they should be available

Try the thirdgen resource link on the top of the page. I think they sell them.

Woot! /grabs phone!

What were th epart #'s when you ordered them?

Do you think that they make some type of paper holder (similar to the thing infront of the passenger) that can be mounted onto the door inplace of the cup holder. I removed the driverside cup holder because it was rubbing my leg all of the time.

Some of the earlier firebirds (I think from 82-88 or so), had an optional little holder that you could put stuff in, there made of vinyl, and have a metal spring clip sewn inside to keep them closed. I put those on insead of the cupholders, because I kept kicking the cupholders in my 91 I used to own.

The gray thing is my Owners Manual, the little arrow is to show you where I am talking about...

And No, those are not factory all leather door panels...
