ARM REST WITH DRINK HOLDER WITH RED RING

Anyone tried one of these from Classic, any installed pictures?

1982-92 ARM REST WITH DRINK HOLDER WITH RED RING

Add the cup holder that GM left out of the 3rd Gen F-Body with the HoldsterTMArmrest replacement. This is NOT a plastic cap, but rather a new padded armrest and King size drink holder complete with mounting screws. Installation is simple, remove your old armrest from the factory hinge and mount the HoldsterTM to the factory hinge using the 3 enclosed screws. Upholstered in black vinyl and comes with a matching black drink holder trim ring to match the original vinyl of your interior. Want to customize the HoldsterTM with to match your car? Choose from 4 different color-coordinated cupholder trim rings (red, blue, silver, or gold) to create your own look

Re: ARM REST WITH DRINK HOLDER WITH RED RING

well....its an armrest which means it will be in the way of your arm resting there.i drilled a 3.5/8 hole in my console behind the window switches and stuck a drink holder insert in there.it was always in the way of my arm.

Re: ARM REST WITH DRINK HOLDER WITH RED RING

I have one in my 92 RS works well enough, but latch mech. has to be removed to install. It is heavy enough not to be a big issue.

Re: ARM REST WITH DRINK HOLDER WITH RED RING

I like the idea but it only has one cup holder and you will have to remove your drink to get inside the center console. I like the Uncle Tom version better because it keeps the center console stock and creates two cup holders.
