Hey Guys. A while back I asked if anyone made cupholder deletes for our center consoles. I didn't have any luck with it. I really dislike the look of the center cupholders, I believe its way to much "clutter". So I made a new center console sans cup holder.

Attached are the pics. Enjoy.

How do you access the keyless port that is under the rear cup holder with this change?
Or do you think you may never use it?

Nice job on the side panels as well.

I use my cup holders too much to get rid of them but I've wanted to wrap the console in alacantra since I bought it. One of these days I'll get the money together to tackle that project.

As much as I agree with you about the clutter, I too use my cup holders too much to cover them. But you have done an admirable job of covering. Well done.....:thumbsup:

While I wouldnt want to get rid of them ( I do use them :D ) their placement is :rant: :rant: :rant: !

Especially if youre tall and have long arms, anything taller than a coke can is annoying, and even those are annoying...

Great job on the Alcantara.

If cup holders are clutter you wouldn't like my cockpit very much. Two smart phones, two radar detectors and a police scanner.

I had to cut and shave down the cupholders. Then rebuild it with a plastic backing and and bondo on top. Took some time, but I LOVE the final product. I also covered the sides as well.
