Cupholders? We have cupholders!!!
 

Am I stupid or those cup holders in the glove box door? There are little circles cut out in the plastic as if you were to "set your drink there". If that's really true... Mazda has a sense of humor....

i noticed those in my old FB.....and i also have them in my FC.

i know it is funny. i actually used it once when i was eating but i was parked. it really is the stupidest thing though if you are driving because one turn and she is gone.

those are definatly a joke.. i was just going to mount a cut holder in my center consol type thing.
that way it is out of the way when i donot need it

You can get cupholders that fit into your cigarette lighter hole

really.. how sturdy are they..
that would not help much for us SA people though, since the shifter is so close to it

Not very sturdy, I got one for my dad for christmas and his coffee spilled all over the floor the first (and last) time he used it.

alot of cars have that. my gf maxima does, my camry did...........

that is kinda what i figured.

Almost every car, that I have seen the glove box, I have noticed those there, I wonder if it was designed for somthing else???? Dunno

reminecent of drive in movie theaters...

Always worked fine for me

i always use mine when im eating "parked" because where else can you possibly fit a cup or two?

the center counsel is taken for nugget dip.

nuggets are nasty......and my friend had one in her old mazda 626 and she only seemed to use it whenever she was picking me up for really important.....

bk chicken tenders with sweet & sour sauce :D

I was thinking of making my own cup-holder out'a the ash tray. I was just going to use some sheet metal to make it a bit more sturdy and to keep it from snaping under a heavy load.

Yumm...Im hungry now...And no engine in my car, cant go to BK :(. I was at McDonalds the other day and ate their "chicken nuggets", they are sooooo gross, I remember why I stopped eating there. BK is the only real place I eat anymore, but I dont eat their burgers, only chicken and fish stuff. I just dont like grilled, flame cooked, or barbecued (except ribs), I must not be an American :D. I used to like McDonalds, and then one time I watched the people in the back making the food...I used to eat Taco Bell, but then they changed their meat and stuff...I never really liked Jack In The Box...Taco Time is too expensive...Whats a teenager to do for lunch anymore!?!?! Now all my friends and I just have a good excuse to drive REALLY fast, we have 1/2 an hour to get from Woodinville to Lake City to Kidd Valley, or maybe even Dicks if were feeling really courageous (or if our radar dectectors are working well) that day :).

Hey RotormotorDriver, you shure you aren't Canadian? It's always too cold to have barbeques up here!:beerchug:

check-out my cup holder in my fb:

and open:




p.s. dont mind the dirty interior :D

Anyone ever notice that the pasenger seat edge next to the console works pretty good for a 20 oz bottle? Thats what I used, and it works pretty good in the 2nd gen too :) Now my 85 had one of those old cell phones mounted and it was perfect if you moved the seat up a little. It would hold anything, a litre bottle, a beer bottle :) (you guys know me :) ) , 20 oz, a can, a big ass coke from Rally's anything. Makes it almost worth getting an old cell phone :) LOL Well I dont have service but it worked for 911 serveral times :)

Hey FD Racer...My interior looks just like that (well, mines brown) :). I have an 83 GSL with the snazy (also non-functional) audio system and the alarm LED in the middle too :). Just thought Id share :).

On my GSL-SE cups fit just great behind the ebrake handle between the seat and console... Works great for supersized McD's cups..

Just don't forget it's there and yank the ebrake when you park when I did... Get's kinda messy..

FDRacer: That's one sturdy cup holder. 6 screws and all :D (I don't think my fuel pump has that many bolts to it. Good compact design for aftermarket though! :)

Mike: I used that spot beside the passenger seat and the console all the time.

rx7gslse: The part behind the e-brake is where my cell goes.

The rotary brotherin are very versitile.... :)

LOL...I feel you all on the lack of cupholders!! I LMAO when I saw those dinky little glove box things, too.

I typically shove whatever I'm drinking in between my seat and the door at kind of an angle. That works pretty well...Especially when whatever it is has a cap or lid on it...The only problem is if it's like a cardboard fast food cup...The cup bows from the pressure popping the lid off a bit...I usually don't know it, but figure it out REAL quick whenever I take a turn. Good thing I shampoo my carpets...

fdracer: the only problem that i see with those cupholders is that they donot hold anything larger than a soda can (now i say soda because you all know that you are not supposed to be driving with beer.. plus beer in cans sucks ass). do you have problems fiting drinks in there?
