I just 3d printed one of these. It is ealily removable when not needed and fits in the glove box. Keeps things original and you can dump the condensation.7cd31ee9ab2d2a9f957052dd9e744562.jpg

I love threads like this because they generate a lot of good, collective ideas! Guys with A/C systems and short consoles...yea you're left with "off to the side" configurations and other less integrated options... And Greg, I think your solution is good, just needs to be dialed in to look more like a factory part. (And some kind of positive connection so it doesn't slide forward or tip/rock around maybe?) Nice to be able to drop it right in without taking the console apart!

I use the screw that holds the vinyl board to locate the holder with a small cylindrical indentation underneath. It works quite well, preventing the sliding under normal driving conditions.

The latest iteration has a nice black vinyl cover. Looks more factory for sure.

I am now making a complete, early style "short" console (w/ gauge panel and cup holder)  these are a little simpler to make (& therefore less expensive) than the "long" complete consoles.

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
