SS cupholders

[tktige']

Anyone find a good match to replace the plastic cupholders with the stainless steel ones. Searched Ebay and they were all 3 1/8" dia.
My hole cut out is 3 1/2". I have a 2001 21V
Thanks TK

I got mine at my Tige dealer

Lots of places sell them, just Google it. They should cost ~10 each. The ones that are difficult to find are the shorter style, I needed some that were only about 2.5 deep for the very forward ones in my boat (hit the interior of the hull) and they were hard to find and expensive.

Yep got em there for $6-7 a piece.

Here's what mine look like:



The only problem I have is with the 2 in the bow. I have a Fly High integrated bow sack that likes to push these back out. I'm going to try and build something around them up front to prevent this from happening, but otherwise they really improved the looks of my boat. They tie in nicely to my Faria instruments, which all have stainless trim.

this sounds like a perfectly logical explanation you can give your wife to justify exactly why you NEEDED LED lit up cupholders throughout the boat
the 3/4" trim ring will help give you room under the cupholder to keep it from being pushed out

dogbert,

do you happen to know the Tige' part number for the stainless cupholders.
I have a 2001 21V same interior as yours. 3.5" cut outs. If I can get my local dealer the part and tell her to just order the part. I may get the right cupholders before Sept. Went round and round with local dealer trying to order the skins for my seats before I told them to just keep them and went to a local shop. Good dealer I just don't think they have the Tige' parts orering process down.

dogbert,

one more question. Are they stepped cupholders with the neoprene glued in the bottom?

Yes. Why don't you do this? Call Scott at the Ski Dock (512-918-2628) and see if he'll ship you some. The next time I work on my boat (hopefully this weekend), I'll check to see what I have to see if there's a part number in there.

Too bad it's not an insurance claim

Tim at Wet Sounds may know since he has them on his speeakers and somewhere he did mention who did them for him. Other than that, the only way I know of to get them is to make them from 3/4" clear Lexan and LED string lights--all of which can easily be found on ebay. If I can get the rest of my "spring projects" done in a timely fashion I will be doing this and I'll for sure post a how-to with some pics.

Tim's got a newer boat. I think he's asking me because there are 2 sizes and his boat's exactly like mine.
