Search,but didn't see that anybody else had tried this holder.
It's from the early 90's b13 sentra's. Fitment is pretty much perfect in the stock radio area-with a little trimming.
It only holds cans and med. size drinks,but thats perfectly fine for me.With a little trimming you can probably be able to fit larger drinks....
and since the bezel angels or slopes, condensation falls near the shift boot not on gauge/electrical stuff below it..
When my friend first saw it,he thought I had bought a flip up DVD player.:p It's dope to me. most OEM cup holder I've seen so far.....

Looks good...then again, that looks like the exact cupholder that came stock on a U13 Altima.
edit: someone should post a list of cars that had this cupholder, that would make junkyard searches easier.

yeah, used to have one like that. A friend still does. I took it out because I found out the hard way when you smack the brakes pretty good (i.e. emergency), medium sized drinks over half full will take flight up the dash and cause head units to smoke. I don't like it when two hundred dollars goes up in smoke. It probably wouldn't have happened if it didn't sit at an angle. But other than that little flaw, it works great for the morning commute.

how do you see your gauge and why did you put your gauge that low ?
Whats the point of having it there ? Do you look down when you drive ?

that's not where it. it's an extra gauge I had,that I put in there,because I didn't want to take a pic with a big ass hole in my face plate.the spot is acutally for a/f gauge.

How often do you look at your gauges? I have 3 in that same spot. Rotate the gauges until the WOT value is @ 12 o'clock. All needles should point up when going fast, it's not too hard.

I have one from a 91 Maxima in mine. Slides into the bottom DIN and fits flush to the CD player.

well, guys... you can also try the Altima 93-97 cup holders... It has the same design as to the sentras...
I just lay my drinks in the back seat floor, with some books to sanwitch the drink up.

Take out the ash tray and set it in there. That's what everyone I know does.

if it's a 12 oz can, i just drink a little and force it into the side pocket on the door. holds it in tight for me. just don't brake hard. maaan, if only there were usdm cup holders like the jdm oem ones that attach to the center console compartment.

for small drinks, I use the ashtray hole, for big drinks, I'll flip down the back seat and set it on the driveshaft tunnel behind the center console. With both front seats pushed all the way back, it gets cradled there by the three seatbacks.

+several people for the ashtray holder lol. I did bid on one off ebay with a cupholder/ tray in one unit. It went for like 100 when the bidding was done though. No way on my end :-/
