Re: cup holder?

I suggest a

People have swapped to 4th gen consoles for their cupholders built in.
People have attached cup holders to the sides of the stock console.
People are even using the Camaro console lid, with a cup holder in it.

All of which there are threads with pics.....

Re: cup holder?

Put one where the ash tray is, or swap in a 4th gen console. I prefer the 4th gen console swap, but it is much easier to do in Firebirds....but not impossible in Camaros, just extra work & parts.
