You should have a cupholder inside your centercolumn glove box.. flip open the top and there should be a fold down cup holder. Its just a single and wont hold anything bigger than a pop can or bottle.. maybe a latte if your into that stuff. But I suppose its better than nothing.

Some came with an insert that sits in your center console to hold them. I had one, but I threw it away cause my console was broken.

This has nothing to do with V6 Technical, moved to General.

Like Tunes Said, there is one dinky metal ring that flips down inside the lid of your center console. It wont really hold anything though, or keep it upright if you have to stop quickly! LOL

Well, you can also get the double-deck center console. that has a 2 cup holder on the lid, 4 is you use and get the insert.

As well, there's alternative. You can get "JDM" din cupholders on eBay once in a while

Or get a din cup holder w/change tray from a Ford Taurus, I used that for a bit too..

I didn't know about the console, I am going to check that out. So far I thought I was outta luck and just put a crappy tire cup holder in the front air vent until I could come up with something better in appearance and function...thanks :D

Oh, i forgot to post a pic of the double-deck center console/armrest

There's also one that just ended on ebay, but i'll give you a good idea on what yo look for.

One think I wanted to try is to fit the 94+ dash cupholders into the 92-93 dash. I have the cupholders. I just need to figure out/find out if it's fesable/doable, especially, i'd be sacrificing my cig lighter outlet, which I use to chage my cell phone

Well, I got them for my non-SE, so :P

Not all SE's had the, if it was even an SE only option. I know MX3autozam's SE didn't some with them....
