Default 'Drink Holder

I have a TXT with the four canned drink holder in the dash. The holes for the cans are too small for my drink glasses. Has anyone come up with a mod to make the holes larger.........even if there is space for fewer drinks. Any ideas will be appreciated. Thanks KIX

how much do you need for the glasses to clear? if its not much, maybe you could convince it with a heat gun???

could router out the tops and use standoffs to support a plate across the bottom. standoffs

You need some tervis tumblers... 24 oz, fit in the holders, and they have several different types of lids for them to keep your drink in and the bugs, dirt, etc out! My local bed bath and beyond has a massive display of these things in every theme you can think of. Keeps your drink cold too!

Get with it man If you need a bigger cup than that, call me...we need to go out and have a few drinks

I was thinking about the large Tervis' as I was reading the posts above and then....you have the answer. Thanks. there's a Beall's store in town that has those on display........a little pricey but it looks like they will work well.

Lifetime warranty too, I took off with one on the roof not too long ago, (it didn't survive) sent it badk to Tervis and they replace free of charge! I've sent back 3 or 4 over the years and they replace with no questions asked!
