I did a search and nuthin came up so I decided to give an FYI...................if you actually use the cup holders for coffee or what have you, the billet trim drastically reduces the diameter of the hole where the cup goes into. The front hole can't even hold a can of pop anymore - the back hole can tho. Forget about the starbucks grande coffee travel mugs - total bull**** :notnice: looks nice tho. I think it's gunna go onto craigslist, or maybe break it out for the droptop weather. my .02 peace
 
Which one is it. I saw at leat one that actually claimed to fit most popular cans and bottles making it practical and purdy. I have found that anything gets in the way of spirited shifting though.
 
I think the simple ring will fit like normal, but is curved at the back (where the armrest is >>>>it's square) and sits on top intead of inside where the lil ledge is. I have the typical one like this:

2005 - 2009 mustang billet cup bezel holder - (eBay.ca item 120349784462 end time 23-Dec-08 14:44:04 EST)

this is the ring one:

05,06,07,08,09 Mustang Shelby Billet Cup Holder Bezel - (eBay.ca item 270319410749 end time 24-Dec-08 21:41:46 EST)

I love the idea of both, and definately dresses things up a bit, but as I said, the 1st one (the one I have) doesn't fit squat, and the fit of the "ring" one doesn't look like it fits great. Which one were you lookin @?
 
There is one, and I have it, I forget the brand, that is thinner than the others and will allows most cups and/or drinks to fit. I also have the other somewhere and had to remove it most of the time when using the cup holder.
 
My SHR cup holder trim can easily hold a can in the front and much larger drinks in the rear. ..not that I can actually use it sense my arms are rather large and Ford decided that the shifter should be right in front of the cup holders. (-.-)
 
Mine is from Silver Horse Racing!!!!! It works great.

+2!!!!! I got their black billet as I can't stand bright and shiny!!!!!

I have the same one as kooldawg6, but mine is shiny. What I did, I never used the tape to hold it down. That way, if I have large cup that doesn't fit through the holes, I just remove it, use the cupholder, and put it back when I'm done. It only takes a few seconds, and the piece does make the interior a lot prettier, IMO. To each their own.......
 
Mine is held by velcro as well which makes it quick and easy to remove, but has the velcro pieces just sitting there if you leave it out for any length of time (not show worthy). The velcro makes it not want to rattle and vibrate!

Here are a few more pics of mine.

SHR here all the way. And yes, it holds things quite well. But for a large Baja Blast, I just pop it out, since it's held in by velcro. SHR had some good thinking there.
