Went to the local 'everything you need' (wal-mart, target, kmart, whatever) store and picked up a couple of 'large' cupholders, you know the plastic kind (less that $1 each) that go over the window..... straightened out the "L" shaped holder that is designed to go over the window.... and shoved that new 'Straight "L"' in under each side of the console.......... one on each side, just in front of the seat, located on the floor....... VOILA! Problem solved.....



And yes, I also hit the other with my elbow all the time. I'm over it.
