Anything to replace the actual ashtray with on a '87-93 besides a switch panel?!

beg ryan to make you one with 2 cup holders, I could but i messed mine up.

I put in a change holder from a Lincoln or Turbocoupe, I don't remember which. It has the spring loaded spots for quarters,dimes & nickles. It fits pretty well, just had to cut one of the tabs on the bottom and then I hot glued it to the plastic that the ashtray sat in. That way I can remove it if necessary.

MEH,,,i got my cell phone charger in there

You got an auto? If so, you could always throw an aftermarket shifter in there

i put my shifter in it to.

I saw somewhere that a guy took the cup holders from an 05-09 mustang and spliced them into the 87-93 console, from the pictures it looked like it came out nice. This is something I would like to try, allow the cupholders are rather deep in my 05 so one might have to shorten them.

Years ago I saw one in a magazine where the guy placed the heater controls in that spot.

I was working on my car the other day and had the ashtry out under the car and forgot about it.....backed up and ran it over.....lol. No coming back from that.....lol. It was in a squished little pile...hahaha. Anways, hit the local pick and pull....got lucky and found one....it was a bit rusted and flaky.....wire brushed and painted....it looks like new for 1.00....Easiest thing to do is find a nother ashtray.....l8r

I put two gauges in mine! Looks pretty cool!

is that a mega squirt I see under the counsel??

Ummm ... fix the ashtray door so you don't have to look at it? (A few magnets and some Super Glue from your local hardware store will do the trick. )

It's the perfect location IMHO. With the stereo in place, the serial port is right in line with the lower slot of the radio mounting plate. When not tuning I simply cover the megasquirt completely with the access plate.

I am seriously thinking about molding in a spot for my ipod or XM reciever

yep pretty damn sweet, you should sell those

dude seriously, someone is going to steal that and patent it. You could probably sell a few thousand of those.

Heck Ill buy 2 right now for both of my stangs. Ever since Ive become addicted to Ice Coffee I always need a place for my drink!!!!!!!!!

Ryan! don't let the opportunity to make a ton of cash slip away! Add me to the list of people who wants one of the cup holders. All you have to do is make one or use your prototype to have one molded out of ABS plastic. You could sell a TON of them. If you aren't interested or don't have the time, sell me the prototype and rights to it and I'll pursue it and give you a big cut of the earnings. Opportunity knocks! Haha.
