Cup Holder?

I almost hate to ask this question but I'm tired of the coffee burning my hand. Is there some sort of cup holder available for the '88 Cougar w/ floor shift?  Not interested in the one hanging from the window.

you can get one from a taurus and install it in your dash, they will take the place of your equalizer/console above your stereo

Whenever I have a drink, I just wedge it down between the seat belt buckle & center console over on the passenger side, works pretty good...:dunno:

I expect here someday rather soon, Thundergrowl might post a pic of his cupholder that i sent him, out of a 94 Taurus, as mentioned...I'd like to see how it turns out...I was going to use it in mine, but after I swapped interiors, i decided that there'd be no food or drink in my car again...:D

It hasn't shown up it! I'm expecting it anyday now. I'll post pictures when it's in.

Well, the Taurus cup holder/coin holder DIN unit is too deep.  It fits perfectly except for the depth.  Did I find the wrong piece?

too deep?  wich space are you trying to put it in?  you may have to move some things around to find the perfect home for it.  I am unsure of the fitment but I have heard of people using them.

I thought a cars performance was based off how many cup holder it had. I mean why do you think there is 12 cup holder in my Caravan?

:D

I usualy just have the passenger hold it and if I don't have one I drive one handed and pass the drink back and forth between hands depending on which way I have to turn.
