Aftermarket rear cupholder for Megacab??

Once all three kids are loaded up the only cupholders fold up into the seat back. I'm looking for something that maybe mounts to the rear of the fold down console in the front seats. Anybody seen one?

Evil: I have 3 kids also and was just thinking the same thing today. I am getting the bench seats and don't understand the front cup holders on the floor either. Where does the front center passenger put their feet? Anyway, I would be interested in any ideas for the rear cup holders also. If anyone knows, please let us know.

I usually only have all three kids in the back when we're going camping, etc., so I'm thinking of getting a couple of these from Geno's and mounting them to an "L" shaped piece that I could slide in under the center front seat console (the flip up).

The baby has a cupholder built-in to her booster seat, so I really only need two. That way I could put it in for a trip and leave it out the rest of the time.

Another option would be to modify this to mount to the rear of the console rather than the front.

Years ago, before cupholders were part of interiors, I picked up a several large ashtrays from a truck stop that you can hang nicely on the doors using the flat edge/groove at the window. If you take the top off them they make excellent cupholders.

Since getting the Mega Cab, I pretty much have eliminated the food/drink stuff in the truck, the grandkids made too big a mess in my last truck, so I didn't encourage it in the new truck. Interior detailing and cleaning all the time was a nuisance.

Now I try to plan breaks into traveling, food and drinks take place during the breaks. So far, not having all that mess has really been nice.

Take the Genos smoothie and saw off the trailing edges and set it on the floor under the center seat. So far my three kids have not kicked it since its basicly under the knees of the one in the center
