3D Printed Cup-holder Insert

[CampingT4R]

Are these still in production? What a great idea. If they arent, OP, perhaps you can share your file and we can take it locally to get printed.

I would be definitely be in on this also, I can't stand the current cup holders.

If OP never returns to making these, I used some 1/16” rubber sheet cutouts as a cheap ~$8 alternative. See my post with pics below:

There’s also a guy who makes a version for 2nd gen Tacoma’s that I think “might” fit if the center divider in 4runners is interchangeable with the one in 05-11 Tacomas. Of course width wise and contour wise it’s not going to conform to the larger cupholder tub on the 4runner as well. It’s currently out of stock but is restocked every now and then.

TiN,

There's quite an interest in this design over on the 4thGen 4Runner Familia Facebook group. If you are no longer producing these, I believe someone there might be interested in buying your design and continuing production.

Has there been any progress in finding the guy who was making these or acquiring his 3D plans? I'd like to order one.

Jumping in this thread in case he produces and sells these again (or is someone else starts too). Would be very interesting in purchasing.

 

[montijo505]

Following in case we can get a new run.

 

[wmiranda]

Ditto,.. interested in these puppies if they are being made by anyone.......

Hey never seen this mentioned before
...but the 2nd gen Tacoma cupholders will fit in that area as long as you remove the center piece. That's what I use at least.

Update

Hey everyone, it's been a bit since I've taken a look at all my threads. Wanted to give you guys an update because I realize I've left y'all hanging for way too long.

I just graduated from university and settled into my job, so now I truly want to get serious about making 4Runner parts again, and I have the time to do so.

Aside from being preoccupied around the clock during school, taking orders from all directions (forum thread, DMs, Instagram, facebook) made selling these items in any considerable quantity more difficult than I was able to deal with at the time.

To help streamline sales going forward and to increase the number of products I can get to end-users, I'm thinking of making a website to serve as the point of sale for all items I produce. The ability to have pictures, descriptions, and pricing for all products all in one place is also very good for potential buyers. What does everyone think of this? Does anyone have any suggestions for a good web-store host to use?

I'll be keeping an eye on this thread for your replies, thanks!

Link?!?! Lol seriously though I NEED this insert. Keep us posted!

I definitely would like to see a website option to purchase but forums work fine as well, maybe consolidate all options into a thread. Hopefully you'll be making the Rigid D2 foglight replacement option :rockon:

I would say an eBay store, but then they get your fees, but you'd also get the exposure through their platform and an easy interface. At the end of the day, having these on eBay would probably also yield some occasional sales especially for those who don't Facebook/forum.

I'm definitely in for some fog light retrofits as well as the rear bumper inserts for LED lights. I scored a cup holder second hand off a forum member at the start of the year and love it! Glad to see you're making a comeback!

I think you would do really well with a web site. That is how AJT started out and he is killing it now. When you have a second shoot me a pm with your email address. I have another idea for you....:wave:

I've been grinding away on a website for the past couple of weeks, and I think it's pretty much good to launch. I still have a few more products to add to the store. Let me know what you guys think.

Everyone should be able to order through the website now. Just give me a shout if you run into any issues. Thanks!

Good job man!

Very Nice...
