Does Ford carry the insert to make the ashtray on the 94-98 a cupholder? I saw one on Ebay a while back but can't find any others. The Ford places around here leave a lot to be desired!!! Most of the time they act all stupid with this type stuff. Once in a great while there is one guy who knows his stuff, but not often.

I have seen that conversion on a site before...I'm sorry I don't remember which one, but it didn't look very practical. I've heard of it getting in the way of the shifter because it is just a plastic piece with a cupholder on top.

No...the one I saw looked just like the newer ones with the factory cupholder. If you didn't know any better, you would never know it was supposed to be an ashtray.

How is that possible? The ashtray is really small! Well if that's true and you find it, make sure you post it.

I didn't mean the little bitty ashtray itself, but the whole thing including the area where the lighter element is. I think you actually have to cut out the area to fit in the cupholder. Make sense? If you were to open the lid of the ashtray and look at the outline, that is where the insert with the cupholder would fit into. Still looking...

Yeah that makes a lot more sense. Didn't some 98's come with actual cupholders? I think I've heard of console swaps for that very reason. Don't quote me though.

Yeah that's what I was thinking of. It's bulky.
