Xmas Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 I seen older post about the pathy not having worth a hoot or good convienant location of cup holders. I that my last choice would be the one that hangs on the door, but I like something to be in the middle / console area though. I saw this one. Do you think this is a good one? I think its a little much though.. http://www.combocaddy.com/index.html What ideas did you do to make a good steedy reliable cup holder, but not making it look like red neck ?

Simon Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Is yours auto or manual? If manual, you can get a dual cupholder that you can put between the shifter boot, and the e-brake "dust collector" that fits perfectly, and stays snug. If it's auto, I've got a dual cupholder screwed to the console on the passenger side. It's not in the way of anything for the passenger, and it actually doesn't look that bad. I'll see if I can dig up some pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i prefer a simple solution, but also looks nice. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 (edited) Alright, I'll try to take a pic this evening, and post it for you. It doesn't look bad....though, by no means does it look stock... For a REALLY nice, though, labour intensive solution, look up jjbigshoe's solution. He put a full console from a Jeep Grand CHerokee in his Pathy. He did an amazing job. Edited November 5, 2007 by Simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k9sar Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 I picked up a cupholder at a garage sale for a few pennies. Once mounted (I'm lazy), it will be on the passenger side of the console. It is about 4" x 4" x 3/4" when folded and flips open into a nice little cup holder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StatutoryApe Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b95/ch620/IMGP0378.jpg there's a link to the pic of my cup holder that i got a kragen. i didn't post it in here cuz it's too big and i don't wanna take the time to resize it. lol. but as far as functionality goes, it works for holding 2 medium-sized drinks. the big ones will just topple over due to top-heaviness, unless you hold on to the top of them. it fits snugly in between my chair and the center console. every once in a while i have to hold on to the tops of my drinks while i take corners too fast (which is all the time. i do it just to save gas) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 That's the one I have, only, mine's screwed to the side of the console to the right of the shifter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrimGreg Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 I'm fine with my stock ones in my 93. Now, my 88, that's another story, it doesn't have any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobLoblaw Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Great topic. My 94 XE Standard has no cup holders at all. What are my options (other than the roll of duct tape LOL!!! )? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LD50 Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 My cup holder, well I would post pics but I don't think you guys want to see a picture of my crotch. Either that or shove the beverage between the seat and the console... works for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nige Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 I got one of these from wheelman's wrecked pathy. The cupholders work well if you don't dring big gulps http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NISSAN-PATH...sspagenameZWDVW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cupholders work well if you don't dring big gulps http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NISSAN-PATH...sspagenameZWDVW Yea I have that, but that is a bad location. I have to bend my whole damn shoulder to get my cup. I don't put my seat back far, not a very tall guy. So I like to get a cup holder that is closer to the e-brake. What I might do is convert my ashtray into a cup-holder area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilErnie95 Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I should get some pics as I found one at Wal Mart that had room for two cups and a coin tray. I cut the coin tray out of the centerand screwed what was left between the Standard gear shift and the council. the cup holders have adjustable sliders on them and look almost like they were ment to be there. I was using the one you slide into the ash tray but soon got tired of wiping every thing down after hitting a bump or going around a corner.

GrimGreg Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 What I might do is convert my ashtray into a cup-holder area. There was an aftermarket insert available for just that. Keep an eye on Ebay, they pop up now and then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadManMike Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Yeah I hate the stock cup holder for the driver and passenger... I feel like I am risking my life every time I try and grab my soda.. I bought some of the single cup holders that can go in your glove compartment, but my glove compartment wouldn't shut with em in there. I did find they work good for a rear cup holder though.. This works pretty good... but won't hold up to something heavy like a big gulp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 Ours came with one of those ashtray insert ones. Can you post a photo of that? I'd like to see this. I haven't seen one in Aust. like that. Thanks Darren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
