Triple gauge pod (dashmount) cup holder solution!!
If you have the Autofacture or 42nd Street panel for gauges, you may have noticed that once the job is done, the cup holders aren't nearly as useful
At least w/Autometer gauges. The bezels get in the way of the holder's base and they don't "deploy" properly. VDO has shallower bezels and this may not be an issue.
$5.99 at Target you can get this holder device. It's a coaster w/rubberized "feet" that can be screw-driven to clamp down on anything. The arms that hold a cup also dial in-out to accept numerous sizes. I clamped it to my ebrake handle and it's perfect. Actually more steady than hanging on the dash.
Removes fast and stashes in the glovebox. Matte black, of course.
