I then got a coin and cup holder out of a Taurus( I actually stole it from my brother), I think it was a '94, and stuck in the hole where my stereo used to me. It isn't perfect, but I like it a lot. 95 Zetec MTX 135,000mi Wash DC

Haha! I was actually going to do that to my Probe when I had it. Only problem was that there is only one DIN slot in the Probes, so I would have had to take out my stereo entirely. Granted I didn't use the stereo all that often, but I wasn't going to go to that extreme just for a cupholder. Matthew 2000 Nissan Maxima SE Sold: 98.5 Contour SE V6 ATX
