Well the old Vitara is a big step down from the 04 GV we have but we are going to make it work! First thing I have noticed is that back in 93 suzuki's didnt seem to have cup holders!! I am addicted to my daily Ice Break when i head out on the road and the wife and kids need to be considered so we had to find a solution!!
First thing I did was to visit one of those auto stores on every second street and pick up a large cup holder (the one that never seems to fit your car!! LOL ). I drilled a hole in it and used a longer screw to mount it to the centre console using the original hole.
I hate driling holes into cars so this solution was eady! Now I had some satisfaction with that one done but everyone knows that one cup holder is never enough!
So off i went to a wreckers that I knew had a few vits laying around and promptly asked for a centre console / handbrake surround that had the cup holders in it. there is no point mentioning year and model as that only confuses them! Lucky there was one available and I had one in my hands about five minutes later. I took it home and unscrewed the console and mounted the new one TADAH!! Luckily the centre console is the same at all the mounting points. Modern conveniance on the old Vit Woo hoo!!! :-)
Stay tuned for the next blog when we replace all the seats for some comfort!
