Yea in a cupholder like that one you never can fit anything, you have to put 20oz bottles upside down and hope they don't go flying into the floor on ya passenger side cause than you'll never beable to reach it again till you stop every xj I ever owned the e brakes didn't work anyhow but it's still accessible and you pretty much made a lil storage compartment that would be perfect for my cigarettes and lighters ext. i might be doing something like this oneday it looks clean and 44oz drinks fit in it you can't beat that!

Yea, underneath it I keep a nice dial-type tire pressure gauge, so it doesn't get beat up. The other stainless piece is for my iPhone and the cup holders themselves are some stupid ricer brand from pepboys. I took them apart and painted over the jap labels. And the phone holder and the cig holder are held down by magnets, so I can pop them off to fit a bigger drink in it's place.

[QUOTE="ColoradoCorey"]

Does your jeep have a clutch safety, and do you need to step on it to start? My jeep is auto but my car is stick, and I was wondering how a remote start would work with a clutch safety.

Some do some dont, but I know mine has no safety. Clutch in or out, the jeep will still start either way.. in gear or not. My father has the viper on his 04 taco, and ive seen it jump when he's hit it.. Gotta remember that e-brake.
