The SA glovebox face isn't as vertical as the one in the FB; it is kind of undercut tapering forward from the open edge. I'll have to dig out my old windowsill cuphoders I used with my Camaro & see how it works.

Main problem with using them in the windows is that, should you forget at roll-up time, you can dump 'em right out.

Tried it; this doesn't work for SA's due to the undercut shape of the glove box; can swings wildly fore-aft. Bummer.

Could probably add a wedge of material to the rear of the cupholder, though, so it has something to 'lean' against. Or even just a dipped-wire 'bipod' for it.

Was only a matter of time before someone went there... but couldn't it at least have been a pleasant sight?
