Default XJS Ski Slope With Cup Holders! (XJS V12)

I've just heard about a Ski Slope for the XJS with Cup Holders instead of Ash Trays.

Anyone got one? Where can I get one?

You can also buy (or easily make) some that have a block attached that fit into the ashtray slot.

Cheers for that JT

Some of these Ski Slopes cost serious money, so I might start getting creative and make one of my own.

I adapted the arm rest from a x300 that had the cup holders on it.. Looks like it should be there.

I bought a ski slope with cup holders from BritishAutoWood.

I am happy with it. I needed cup holders. Some things to consider...

1. Cupholders only hold things the diameter of a soda can.
2. The trim pieces for the buttons and switches will not clip back in as the new ski-slope material is thicker than the original veneer.

I think that's all I got.

I'm still happy with it and figured it was worth the price.

Hi Vee

I may get those ones that Malc suggested, if the original trim won't fit but in any event, thanks for sharing.
