Finally upgraded these horrible cup holders

I wish you had told me that before I did it to my new cup holders ( 2012, Made out of Rubber Ones )

Yes, you can.

 

You cannot fit a nalgene bottle in the new style cup holder...no way, no how

 

Nalgene makes a bottle that Will Fit the New Cup Holders as well: http://store.nalgene.com/category-s/6.htm

I see that you edited the post that I replied to afterwards.

I thought from your original post that I couldn't put Velcro under the holders. What the discussion was about the cup holders sticking to the cup or ... and pulling out.

 

Problem with those adjustable cup holders they don't last I have replaced them twice already My truck is a 09. Once through warranty and the other I had to shell out $47

 

Velcro'd mine in. No issues. End up using the passenger seat for big bottles.

 

I just pull one of the 12+ inserts out and a Nalgene bottle fits perfectly, nice and snug next to the remaining insert.

 

Mine is a 2005, cup holders (along with the rest of truck) are good as new...

 

plywood 2 colman camping coffee mugs and some vinly material

 

Winner.

 

that looks good!

 

OK, I'm really confused. The "old style" is the adjustable and the new are the non-adjust? I'm also not understanding who thinks which are better? I have the adjustable ones and they work just fine, never had any issue at all with them holding anything I've put in them.

 

Old style adjust and are superior to the newer one-size-fits-most rubber ones

There is WTT thread in here.I traded a member my adjustable for rubber fixed ones. Search cup holder.

 

On the contrary

 

My adjustable ones came with my 2009 truck. I use those for large drinks and the one between the shift knob and the console for the coffee(smaller) for a snug fit.

 

You're correct, I miss spoke, the newer ones are one-size-fits-most...

Other post fixed...

 

update: adjustables kick ass. no regrets buying them!

 

So is this not standard now? Mine came with it in 05.

 

Has anyone modified the small one by the gear shift? I thought about maybe a hole saw and 3" pvc cap so that something bigger than a 12 oz can would fit. Should work in theory right?

 

Where did you get the cup holder upgrade?
