That lower console makes it looks just like stacked cubby holes. Not saying that is it bad at all. Better than OEM period.

Don't feel bad, I actually attempted to make a shift boot when I was like 17 with my 93 automatic Civic. results were not good as soon as I shifted into "D". lol

if you find the plastic bracket that holds a stereo in place in an 88-91 hatchback, it could be easily modded to fit behind there. like, glue in place, done. i'm trying to find a picture, lol.

Lets face it. The 1.6 EL cup holders are only good for cans... so let's play spot the next mod!

Ok, I'm finally mostly happy with the setup now. Switched positions on the top side.

Thanks for the feedback. I did finally go ahead and grab my dremel to smooth out the edges on the cup holder. They're rounded now and that thing fits so much better. Still kinda "meh" on the lower cup holders though. They're awful except for use with cans.

Im probably getting my windows tinted this weekend. Any suggestions on how much? The guy can do down to 15%, and I believe the Arkansas law limit is 5% on the front, 25% on the sides, and 10% on the back. If I recall, stock tint is 35%?

So... suggestions?

Stock should be 70%. That's the PA legal limit.
