MGW CUPHOLDER TRIM BEZEL PICS.....

[MGWLTD]

well i was not quite sure what to do with the cupholder/ashtray thingy so i at first thought of a coin holder. well it just does not go well with the theme inside the car( too bulky) . then i figured just leave it alone and use it as a blasphemous cupholder.

only problem is when putting a can of soda in the hole it does not support it very well due to its shallowness and tapered cavity.

sooooo....i came up with a neat idea. i made a trim bezel that inserts in the cavity to reduce the diamter of the opening to better support a can of soda and also dress up that void. i think it turned out nicely as it really accents the shifter bezel. the outside of the ring has 2 o-rings seated in the circumference to give it a nice snug and "SCRATCH FREE" fit to the opening.

i do not have any ready quite yet as they take about 2 weeks to get plated. i should have them ready by then.

not sure on price but i estimate it to be around 20-35.

here is a pic...

You could do something similar for the gauge's.
It would dress those up also.

What a wonderful idea. Excellent product.
Is this also triple "pearl bright" chrome-plated? Or is it something else?

Cool. That's great.
It would be nice to at least see prototypes of the gauges. Maybe get some feedback on that from everyone here before going all out.
From what I've seen since discovering the Viper forum, all your work results in high-quality products.

Maybe when you do the gauges you can figure out a way to eliminate the reflection at night in the windshield from the upper right gauge.

UGGHHH!!! A cupholder in a Viper, still can't deal with it, but working on it...

However, that is the nicest cupholder I've ever seen, regardless of it's home.

George, send me one of these along with the knobs.
Russ- Man I love your Comp Coupe! What a great photo. When they built the street coupe I gotta have red with silver stripes. Awesome!
