I knew Chad would be posting here. He's got a great w126 center console to use for design purposes.

Hey Chad, is that center console Blue or Black? Just curious.

I plan to make up a bunch and sell them on eBay too, which I will sell for $75 plus shipping and handling there.

I do have a larger cup that would easily fit in the 126 console version. I made several of the 123 version with a large cup up front and the smaller cup (the one in the pic) in the back. The small cup is 2 inches deep which passed my intense slalom test.

The larger cup is 3 inches deep, but I may have to alter them depending on how deep the 126 console is. I won't know until I start mocking them up.

I'm looking forward to when you have a fresh batch ready to go

I'm not a big fan of crotch locking my coffee mug

It's the blue one on the far right.

I have these consoles for mock ups so I can make the cup holders for 115, 116, 1st gen. 126 and 2nd gen. 126. I also have a 107 console which is not pictured. The mock up is already done for the 107s but have no orders in work right now. Plus the 107s seem to have several different consoles. I made one and took it to a GTG and it only fit 1 out of 3 SLs and all three were slightly different.

I used my cars to mock up the 123 cup holders.

I won't begin the next batch until the weather warms up since my garage isn't heated. When I do start again, it will be more 123s, then 126, 115 and then 116.
