Cup Holders

Does anyone have a solution for a cool cup holder? Something you can use a "coozie" with, preferably in stainless or chrome. :rolleyes:
Cheers, Matt

"BCS" Beverage Containment Systems. Look on the web. They have a few cool solutions but are pricey.

Their website appears to be gone but there are a few retailers online such as http://www.off-road.com/jeep/reviews/bcs/

The anodized aluminum ones with the ball bearing gimbles look cool but are way expensive.

Do you hit the one in the drivers seat with your leg?
I'm kicking around next winter to modify the trim panel you have yours mounted to and make it wider to accept a regular cup holder like the bigger boats have.

Yes constantly hitting it with my leg..already broke one. Looking for something that can mount in the same area but not made of plastic. And most importantly it has to look cool too.. :rolleyes:

I have a 2000 29 Fever and did not have cup holders just like yours. I had fountain make me a set of cup holder panels for the driver and passenger side. It bolts in the exact place that your vinyl panel covers are now. They worked great and looks like it came from the factory. It was a little pricey though at about $250 for both pieces. I will take some pics this weekend and post up. Here is a pic I found of a newer boat that has the cup holders when I was ordering from fountain.

I did the same thing last fall on my 2004 29'. The wife broke two sets and I had enough. So I ordered a set that are for a 2006 29' and had them installed on mine. Love them. Yes a little high but heck I don't have to worry about them breaking off now.

Who gave you that price? Been wanting to do that too on my 03 but someone from Fountain told me 400 :eek:

Re: Cup Holders
 
I think that I ordered them from Robert(?) It was about $220 for the cup holders and about $10 to ship. I got them done about a year ago.

Re: Cup Holders
 
Didn't know that was available, but that is what I'm considering doing. Wonder if the 29's are the same as my 32'?
Any passengers side shots?

99fever27 05-09-2006 05:56 PM

Re: Cup Holders
 
Thanks Guys!!
Thats exactly what im looking for...I will be on the phone with Fountain tomorrow to check a price. Do you know what size of cup holder fits in the opening? :evilb:

US1 Fountain 05-09-2006 08:50 PM

Re: Cup Holders
 
Get the biggest one possible if you have a choice so a coozie will fit.

I have another pic if you want one but it has my son's mug (camera hound) in it.

Nope, that's shows what I need. Thanks.
It appears the lower panels are not changes any, just the uppers with them extending out past the lower panels (part of seat base)

Re: Cup Holders
 
Talked with Robert today @ Fountain parts. He quoted me "around" $400.00 but wasn't sure if it was available for the 27'. He said he would check into it and call me back. I'm still waiting :rolleyes:

If they are available for the 27 count me in. Maybe if we get enough of them for a run it will help out.

This is what I did on 2000 38 lightning, I don't know if it will work on fever but it works good on the lightning, I put one screw in it to hold it , it will hold 2 drinks and other stuff, I bought it at boaters world.

good idea! :drink:

I'm checking with Fountain to see if I can get something like this for the soon-to-be mine 27. It currently has white plastic flip cup holders that are just unacceptable.

This is what i did. I took the panels off and had my local shop make some just like fountain did. They used my panel so everything bolted right back up. I can't find any pictures right now but they look just the same as factory

What did that run you? And where is this shop located?

JoCo32 05-10-2012 03:38 PM

I had a local guy make them and just screwed them to the existing panal. Can't tell it from factory.

I like the oversized side panel. Who built you garmin holder

JoCo32 05-12-2012 07:33 AM

It's from Fountain, had holes for gauges. Just cut it out for the Garmin and had Steve make the panal to match the dash

You have a side shot of the switch panel?

I'm thinking of removing the VHF, but will be left with the large hole.

$200 sounds a lot better than $470...

Here you go, I made a template and sent it to steve. I'm sure he still has it. I also did the port side to match. Gives it a little balance.

That looks great. Did Steve do your glove box door? My carbon is peeling off the door.

Those look good. Do you have contact info? I'd love to look into getting two made (just with red cup holders).

Yea, Steve did the door. It's just applied with double sided tape. You could proabbly pull it off and re apply.

Tim @ Auto Interiers in Raleigh. 919-821-4425 Very talented guy, he did the sundeck, cabin carpet and made the pillows. We also removed the sink and cooler. Made panals where it was. Looks factory with a lot more storage.
