Cup Holder Question

[Maxil]

I am looking to get a 4runner in the next few months, probably a 97' or 98' for the amount I have to spend. My only dislike, and I know it's kind of minor is the cup holder. I almost always carry a cup of coffee and they just won't fit in those years. Is there any somewhat cheap fix to get a cupholder in there that looks halfway decent?

I appreciate the help,
Maxil

If you don't mind a little DIY work, it can be done without a dealer/mechanic. I know JohnsD90 has a link in his signature to some work he did on his center console, hopefully he'll chime in so you can see what I'm talking about.

I did the swap and a writeup (in my sig) on it, but i find myself using the old ones a lot too, cause in the 5 speed the bottles get in the way, But i still reccomend the swap because of the additional storage.

I really appreciate the replies, I have driven a 97' and like the way it feels, just couldn't stand the placement of the cupholders, not to mention they can't hold cups very big.

Thanks again,
