Bizarre that we posted that at the same exact time - that's the one I have that I got from 9x. It's a sign...and a great cup holder

Default 9X

Yeah,I have the one from 9X in my 968 and it works great.Actually with the black interior and carpet it blends in really well.Easy to install and looks like it may have been a factory unit.

I simply use the sub-belt hole of the passenger's racing seat I installed.

I can vouch for the double between the seat cup holder from Walmart. Had it in my old Jetta and it worked flawlessly. The Cell phone compartment was nice too. I Think I paid less than 5 bucks for it. What have you got to lose.

I strap a camelback to the rollcage behind my seat and run the blue hose through the houlder harness hole in the seat. Works great at 2g's cornering and 130 mph. No spills and no need to take your eyes off the road.

Ohh works great with a full face helmet too.

I have one that replaces the center console cassette box that I have never installed.

PM me if you are interested.....

The retractable in leather would be my choice, saw it in a friends car and it look OE.

I'd say the best cup holder is a hot female passenger. They make them in a number of configurations, shouldnt be hard to find one to your liking.

They might even match your interior!

I got this one from Performance. I put it where the cassette holders were. The hinge and everything was gone on mine when I bought it. So I just stuck it in there.

Said that a few times myself.

Please tell me you're going to make your interior a complete color combination and not leave red seats with white doors...please....

Like I always say V2, it's a work in progress. I have a cream, or is it linen, colored center console to put in it. And I do plan on doing something with the seats. I thought about cream and black, or maybe all black seats. Haven't decided yet. When I bought it it was all black interior. Those are Wet Okole seat covers. Thought the red and black looked good in there. Plus they are a heck of alot cooler in the summer than the leather is. Then I found those door panels and other interior parts someone was parting out. Liked the color combo and bought them. Then winter hit and I stopped working on it.

Did that set you back $125? I really like those, but that seems STEEP!!

The best I have seen can be found here:

A bit expensive, but classy and versatile.
