and after about 2 weeks of it getting a cruise round the world its finally arrived, i was expecting something cheap and flimsy but actually its very sturdy and feels like its made of good plastic, here is a few pics, sitting on the bonnet by the way:
Now it doesnt come with fixing screws, no big problem i just tipped out the box of screws and stuff i took out of the vitara when i was stripping it:
theres more where that pile came from, but my choice of screws came down to 2 types, speaker screws (the long ones) or the ones previously holidng a glovebox in place (the stubby ones):
I chose to use the stubby ones, the heads on the speaker ones were too small for the purpose.
Situating the cupholder was the next issue, i decided to mount it to the centre console in the passenger footwell because its easy reached, and where its sitting doesnt get in the way of any vents or the seat in the small person setting, here is it installed:
To test it out i bought the biggest can of red bull, opened it and it sat there just fine, drove back home and it was quite safe and easy to reach, even did a handbrake turn in the yard and it stayed in place, so its a success.
