Universal fitting with 4 bolts... sounds like you may have too adapt it a fair bit too fit.

Unfortunately cant imagine it fitting with the original handbrake etc Sad i miss cup holders!

Everyone's going on about cup holders but tbh, I don't eat or drink in my car so I really don't miss them :-)

Looked like it wouldn't really fit :L just was curious. Looked like a generic eBay item with every car model under the sun advertised for it. Seen a few home mods. Might just modify the hole in the centre console make it large enough to hold 1 bottle/can ;L

I don't know why everyone feels the need to say this... Got the same comments when I made mine 5 years ago: http://www.theywhoshallnotbenamed/forum/...up-holders

If you look at other cars, a lot of them have the cup holder above the stereo.

if any of you are familiar with the cupholders in a mk4 golf, im sure you could get them to fit somewhere in the dash.

Check out Niall's project thread. He fitted one quite nicely in his, from the breakers yard.
