Cupholder, Cupholder, Cupholder

I have a 4940C and I'm now replacing the third cupholder. Montana has been using these wimpy little fold up plastic cup holders that mount to the left pillar back of the door. The big problem with these is that the base has a tendancy to get bumped and snap off. Too much leverage for the small plastic pins.
Well, I get a boat catalog from Overton's marine supply and low and behold when looking through their catalog there is the same plastic cup holder that Montana supplies and right below it is exactly the same thing only available in Stainless Steel.
I am now ordering a steel cupholder which should be much more robust than the Montana plastic ones.

Cheers.
Glenn.

any chance you could post a link?

I'd be up for a cup holder improvement. Kubotas engineers mush have thought long and hard to design the worst possible place for a cupholder that is anywhere near the seat. And I give them credit, they succeeded.
