All cup holder orders have been shipped!

You should have received a tracking number by now if not the delivery. If you are still waiting, please PM or e-mail me.

I just wanted to take a moment and says a big "thanks" to the RX7Club community. I know people say "the forums are dead" and everything is on IG and FB now - but I beg to differ. The RX-7 community has been a constant for the past 20+ years with their collective memory and unmatched expertise. I hope I'm able to keep serving you guys now and in the future.

If you ever have ideas for new products - feel free to reach out! Always looking to make dreams a reality.

I received mine yesterday. Very nice product - top-notch quality. Attaches like OEM to my Bride rails. For me though, the position of the holder rubs my right leg too much so it's a no go for me. Not a knock on the product as I can't see a better way to alter the design and have it work differently.

The passenger side mount might be a better fit for you in that case!

We just had a customer out at a track day with his and he had nothing but positive things to say.

If you want to swap it out - zero problem.


...also, glad to know it works with Bride rails - we only tested OEM and Spirit-R/RZ rails/sliders.

Hi, I was looking at your product and this one:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07C11CRBW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07C11CRBW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Just from observations, I can see some pros and cons with both.
I was just wondering if you had some comparative feedback that might put my decision over the edge to your product.
Thanks!

Well, I think our solution looks a little more OEM. Not to mention a bit more hidden. Additionally, mounting is completely reversible and takes all of 30 seconds to install/remove. It’s also designed specifically for the FD3S - not just a universal solution.

I’m not exactly sure where that Amazon one would install...? It also seems to require you to mount it with screws - which is a non-starter for me. With the limited amount of interior panels left in existence - the last thing I want to do is drill into one.

Is it too late to get in on the group buy? 95$ each is pricey... hoping the LHD passenger side one mounts closer to the trans tunnel as opposed to the passenger door?

i cant speak for the group buy pricing.
but i have the LHD Passenger one, both driver/passenger side mount to the trans tunnel side. neither option mounts near the doors as that would interfere with getting in and out of the car.

nice quality piece, easy to mount. buy with confidence!

YES!

We had a customer reach out recently to confirmed fitment and send over some pics:

Oh no! I'm so sorry! This looks like it slipped through the cracks.

I will get it out today and get tracking emailed ASAP... but I'll also recommend to you and anyone else, e-mailing direct is a FAR better way to get customer service.

Had I not browsed across this thread, I wouldn't have seen this. Additionally, had you e-mailed back on the 31st instead of posting here, it would have shipped already.

Received! Excellent quality, I really must say. Love the way it looks in the car. Thanks for the rotary keychain and stickers as well.
