Default Zeta Products Folding Cup Holder Add On!

Most of you know about the Zeta Products armrest for the Scion xB and xA, well as you know to begin with you get to keep you storage behind the e-brake handle and you get built in storage in their armrest.

Zeta Products has steped it up a notch and now has available an Add-on Folding Rear Cup Holder. This product is super slim and folds up and out of the way. This is a direct bolt on to any of their existing armrest. I have it already installed in my car and its great. Even when the cup holder is open is does not get it the way of the back seat passengers. ALSO you still get to keep your existing storage tray behind the e-brake handle!

The cup holder option is just $10 with the purchase of an armrest!
If you already have a Zeta Products armrest its just $15 shipped!

I timed the install from start to finish and it took 3 minutes and 40 seconds. There is 1 existing bolt under the armrest that you uses to bolt cup holder to the armrest. Very easy and very quick!

Here are some pics of the cup holder installed in my scion!

With Zeta Products armrest you get extra storage built in to the arm rest and you get to keep your existing storage tray behind that e-brake handle. Also that armrest folds up and out of the way. Also once its up it locks into place so it dosen't fall down. The build quality is very very good and it also fits and looks like it should be there. Now with the addition of the add-on rear cup holder you can't go wrong with this.
Once installed it makes the drive so much better and so much more comfortable ... I could never drive another xB without one ...

I'm liking the storage version more and more. It is just hard to justify spending the money since I originally bought the first Zeta version.

There was a member on here that sold their non-storage one in the classifieds and then bought the storage one ... You could try to sell it and make a few bucks back to put towards the storage one!

Well Zeta is one of his sponsors as long as you know that it should not be a huge deal. If it were not for his post I would not have known about the product. That being said I did buy it today!

Or, be smarter and get the SCION stock one, for under $100, and it has the rear cup holder already there!

And, the whole thing is a five minute install!

(No, SCION does not pay me to plug their product).

The factory one has one cup holder. Our armrest retains the original factory one plus we add the folding unit.

Ah. Well, your product is way too expensive, and frankly, I know of several Box owners that have bought yours, thought it was too cheap a product, sold them, and bought the SCION stock one.
I'm just reporting what I know.
But hey, good luck with your product! Have a great day.

Thanks for the comments. I have had no complaints or returns with our product because they were not happy with the quality.

zeta,

would you ever consider putting your storage armrest in the ~150 arena? All others seem to fall in the 89-130, and the zeta storage ends up hitting at least 200 with shipping and that cup holder thingy.

i for one would jump on board and buy one if it were more competitively priced.

just some thoughts!

You have to compare and see what all the other armersts have to offer. Nothing comes close in terms of features and overall design/quality. Buy one. If you don't like it return it and I will pick up the freight! Does that seem fair?

this is the wrong forum for pitching his sponsors product.....it is like an end around to the forum's rules...should be in the sales section
