The last thing I would ever do is detract from the Tiger reputation, but I think this might be worth sharing. I've been thinking about some type of cup holder that I can use when cruising around and then put it out of sight when I'm not using it. The one I found to work for that is the "WEDGIE" cup holder from Walmart for about 5 bucks. You can see from the photo that, incredibly, the ribs fit the width of my console at the back. The only modification was to cut a half circle in the WCH to allow it to seat down as far as possible. The flat surface of the WCH fits down between the back of the console where it butts up against the vertical surface of the interior. Enjoy!

Who says getting a "wedgie" can't be fun?
 
Hands down can't beat that.

Someone will have to give me a wedgie before I get one from Walmart. And I mean that in both ways. LOL
 
Better than mine

Yours is better than my Harbor Freight magnetic cuff for holding screws at hand while you are working. It works much better holding itself to the metal sides of the glove box and keeping the drink from sliding back and forth.

It was one of their free items to boot.
 
How easy is it to reach your drink with the wedgie? I usually open my center console and just place it in there, or the old fashion way and ask my wife to hold it.......
 
cup holder

i use the cup holders that VB sells. i mount them on the sill near the front of the door. they are collapsible and do hold your drink. 9.95 each.
 
Everyone seems to be obsessed with drinking and driving! :eek:

i figure if you are having enough fun exploiting the Tiger while driving you better have a lid on those drinks :cool:

Given how often any of us use the windscreen washers.. maybe you could run the tubes into the interior instead of the waser jets.. you could have one of the bike riding bite ends.. and fill the washer bootle with your favourite beverage.. givcen the tigers engine bay heat.. you could probably have a nice hot coffee or chocolate

If you notice, mine is gimbaled at least in the forward/back direction for those quick starts and hopefully not so quick stops due to paying too much attention to your drink ;)

I've been out several times now with my new Wedgie and can get/replace it almost anytime while driving now. I expect to handle it between gears changes with a little more practice. With something this cheap, now I can spend more money on something else....maybe Tiger floor mats.:) Oh, and I should mention that I forget it's even there until my thirst light illuminates.
