I find the cupholder in the Grenadier fantastic, especially compared to my LC200.

Hi! I am still running with the original design my son made. It works for me. I never really offered it for general consumption because you do have to dremel out two of the factory gussets inside the center console and part of the upper lip to get the larger cup holes to fit. I didn't mind doing that because those gussets don't seem to actually do much and other than myself, who cut them out, nobody would ever know. I can pop the factory cupholders back in at any time and all the required modifications would be covered up and unnoticeable. If you're unconcerned about doing such I can email you the files. It is hard to explain, but if you printed it out you would see exactly what I mean when you tried to get it to fit in the stock location! The files contain the cupholder, the defroster diverter I added (I'm still convinced the outragious heat from defrost is causing most winshieldcracks), and a bump out I added for the drivers seat belt. It raises the seatbelt 1/2" off the sidewall so I can grab it easier. My broken shoulders had a hard time getting the seatbelt because it was always flat against the b pillar trim.Howdy SQF1, did you ever finalize your print file for this?
This is the only cupholder mod I've been able to find that actually makes sense to me. Just replacing the cup holder and not the entire console while using the dead space underneath, very clever!
Yeah absolutely! I've already dremeled plenty of my Grenadier so no worries hahaHi! I am still running with the original design my son made. It works for me.

Thanks.Just use a smaller cup. You don’t need to drink that much
