Bottles tip over the second you turn a corner. This one drops into the ashtray slot and uses the same two screws that are already there. No drilling, no cutting, done in about five minutes with a screwdriver. If you ever want the ashtray back, unscrew this and pop the original part back in. Nothing on the car is modified.
