Default My First Mod...Cause the Cup holders suck in a Audi

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/70047/cupholder.jpg"></center><p>These cup holders hold most cups but were mainly designed for my coffee drinking habit. They hold Tim Hortons and Starbucks perfectly. The cup goes into the factory slot to hold the bottom of the cup and of course the top holder holds the top of the cup. The cup holder is completely removable and is not attached in any way. It holds in its spot but the depth of the factory storage spot.

Default Oh ya the arm rest still goes all the way down just not with coffee in holder

I also made some to fit in the back arm rest. They are just black though. If any one wants pics of those let me know.

Default sorry i meant too close to one's right arm

my right arm tends to wander a bit and i like the ability to freely move my arm w/o knocking down the cup.

Default Details on the legs would be nice, I am dissatisfied with the holders also....

I don't trust the one in the dash, and the one in the arm rest is in the way for shifting, especially with the SS. I did get a VW cupholder from Clair parts. I think I still have pics of it in my PP. I removed it recently for 2 reasons. 1 - my girlfriend is a clutz and busted the thing in 3 pieces when she got into the car one day while it was open. And 2, the damn thing would fold up on you while trying to insert a cup. Kind of defeated the purpose of having a cupholder if you need 2 hands to use it. I like where you went with the design, although I think some adjustability would be nice. Maybe I can put my engineering degree to good use and come up with something!
