How I drink and drive. The party cup mod.

rallyegolf · 09-01-2011, 09:43 AM

So this inst anything mind blowing, but I thought it was pretty cool. My work uses the red party cups by our water cooler and one day leaving I grabbed one on my way out the door. The cup happened to be in my cup holder empty the next morning and while my hands were full or things, I put my coffee cup inside the red cup in the cup holder. This coffee cup happened to be a shape that does not fit in our awesomely engineered cup holders. It fit like a glove.

Anyways, this is no big deal for most, but these cups happen to fit perfect in the cup holders and the little dish by the arm rest. I just wanted to share so you can help your passengers stay dry when they are sitting in the splash zone.

I may try this. The pop-out 'cupholders' can't even hold cups right so they're not even cupholders by definition ... I've been tossing bottles of water on my passenger seat.

I think they work pretty well, as long as the cup isn't too big or wide.

That is kind of why this is so cool. The tapered cup fits about anything you want to put in it.

I like. These work great for my mini-wines.

I'm not dissing the mod - it's a solid addition. You should buy a pack at costco and sell them on the forums, wrap them in carbon fiber

Better yet, wrap them in carbon fiber vinyl and capitalize on the profit.

Well, I like to be original. I don't want anyone else having the same ghetto mods I do.
