I have had a couple of requests to make something similar to these pics that BlackCat displayed a few weeks ago.

I would make these out of 1/8" thick plexiglas. it would be frosted to to allow light to come through, but not to much. In these pics, the plexiglas is frosted.

I would make one (1) that looks like an "8" to fit the BIG cupholders. I would also have one (1) for the smaller cupholder. So, you get two (2) lens.

If I make one set of these, it is pretty expensive. If I can get a minimum of five (5) people, the cost comes down pretty good.

Price is $85 shipped.

This is just for the plexiglas cut outs. If you have something else in mind, PM me.

Hey coupe

What is the function of these. Is it just to put a light under ro let the glass glow, or to cover it off completely to make it flush with the top?

Just like the last pic shows, it distributes the led's light. It makes the cupholder led mod look like a semi professional job

I am going to go ahead and add this to my list of widgets to sale.

This was my prototype. This one is in an opaque white. It will mute the colors a bit. If you want a brighter effect, we could do this in a frosted clear.

I am going to cut some out of both and have them available.

Cost will be $85 shopped.
