Default Squirrel Crusher's console bin solution

People have been looking for a bin to replace the cup holder and here is a post by Squirrel Crusher telling you how to do it and what to use.

One like ours and the other style has a pocket and coin combination that I don't like. The pocket combination one is two deep to be useful plus the coin slot just takes up useful space. Saturn's car pocket bin is 1/8 inch longer than ours. Other wise,It's identical as far as I can tell. If you hand file our console out 1/8 inch toward the coupes mirror adjustment control,then the Saturn's car bin will fit in like factory appearance. The salvage yards are full of Saturn cars. Just put your fingers inside the bin and pull up hard. No tools necessary to remove. Just make sure it's a base poor man's Saturn car. I paid 50 cents for my like new console bin from Pull-A-Part. (You must remove our console to completely discard the cup holder). Squirrel Crusher
