glad you like it. just got it?

personally, I can't say that i feel the same. i've only had people in the backseat a few times in the years i've had my cars. those seats are worthless for non-children. I actually went ahead and took the backseats out a few weeks ago. got tired of the dead space.

Yep, 5. The pocket on the bottom on the passenger door bulges in the front to serve as a cup holder! (I've already admired all those great little things!)

I don't even let liquids in my car, so mine just gets used as a cell phone holder.

I have an 85 Z28 with NO cupholders and NO cruise and NO A/C. I'm living the good life in my NEWish Z haha and I dont let anyone eat or drink in it even though there are stains from where the guy before me had it. I got most of them out but his little kids wreaked havoc on this car.

In my opinion the one in the door is not a cup holder. There is no base to it for stability, which all cupholders need. And with the countless number of Firebirds I've done, I also can't count the number of dried spills in the doors. At BEST its a terrible holder.
