Has anyone done or know of a mod for the NC console to get rid of the useless drink holders and simply have a storage space?

Ah welcome to the Japanese trying to appease the US market but failing there and worldwide.
I’ve been meaning to do this mod for the last 9 months but haven’t had the time. I had been hoping that the aftermarket suppliers would have come out with a fix by now but no luck.
There are a few on Miata net that are worth reading about. I think the best and the easiest I’ve seen is where the curve ends are retained and just the intruding centre moulding is cut away and replaced by straight sides. Then you cut down the lock to give added clearance.

I went to get a price on replacement lid and drink holder in case i stuffed it up. Only available as console unit, 148 bucks i think it was which didnt seem too bad.

148 bucks sounds alright,maybe Icould get a black console to break up all that tan.
Sounds like a plan.

Any further developments here? I'm still scratching my head on this one also. 4 cup holders in a 2 seater..... one for IB1ZA's genius book of records....

As posted on the other thread...
The 2 on the console are the cup holders. The ones on the doors are water (or soft drink) bottle holders in Australia. They're bigger in diameter.
But in some countries, where smoking is still acceptable, they're ashtrays

hmm, cut off the little tab, line it with some cloth and you have a great coin holder for the tolls
