I got tired of gum wrappers, food and "stuff"
falling into and cluttering up the console cup
holder openings.

Soooo... I cut went down to the local upolstery
shop for a remnant of vinyl which is darn close
to the graphite color, and made a cover. I just
flip it up if I want to use the cup holder.

Made a template, cut out a thin piece of plywood,
glued on foam to top, stapled and stretched the vinyl,
glued a piece of vinyl on the bottom to dress it out.

It does the job.. see the before/after photos at:

56 ~ Doncha find the OEM cupholders to be somewhat awkward? I understand the guys w/01's are able to install 99 silverado dash mounts into theirs successfully.

Has anyone tried it on the 02's?
