I just ordered the "new" style cup holders from a local Ford dealer and they told me that the kit came with the 2 cup holders, a table top (?), an ashtray holder, velcro straps (?) and instructions. Did I order the right thing? I gave them the part number which is listed on the CEG site. $27 for the kit doesn't seem too bad. I'm just wondering what the other stuff is for. Thanks for your help. smile

P.S. I tried ordering these through Bill Jenkins at Sentry Ford first, but he doesn't work there anymore. He moved to Las Vegas. Oh well, no more sweet discounts!

Yes, that is it. I think the table top helps secure it and the ashtray fits in the cup holder is easily removable.

Thanks guys. Can't wait to get them installed and finally have some "stability" from the cup holders.

It sounds like you are getting the wrong thing. I think the one you are describing is the one for 98 and newer cars.

The revised cup holder for 95 to 97 cars is a stronger larger single pull up and fold out cupholder that will also require a new bezel. The cup holer is bout $50.00 or $55.00 and I think the bezel is about $10.00 or $15.00.

I have the upgrade in my 98, and it is essentually an upgrade to the 2000 style. Since the consol is very different, it will not even begin to work on the early cars, unless you change the consol too.

Then you are getting the right thing. It will be nearly self explanitory when you see it.

My local dealer wants $95.00 for the set. Anybody know where to get them cheaper?
