I think I'd like to do that at some point, those looks great. I have my jack controls on the floor, so my driver side might not have a magazine rack or anything, but really like the design. Looks good!

Thanks for the kind words. If it's not possible to design a magazine rack into the drivers side you're co-pilot will appreciate it for maps, etc. Side note: I designed the units to standard oak stock on hand at Home Depot. Only because I don't have a table saw to rip, yet. Fun project. Extremely pleased.

My cup holder came from GPSCity.com. It is made by RAM and is self leveling. Something like what they use on boats.
This can be used with or without the foam insulating insert.

Yeah I know but I really like the quality of the RAM products and their durability.
In addition, I have used RAM for my SilverLeaf VMSpc display for monitoring the engine and my Garmin RV760-LMT GPS to guide me around town.
I have another RAM holder for a wireless review camera which I only install when I am hitching up my "rolling garage" Pace Cargo Trailer to the coach. When done I remove it until the next time.
RAM makes the very best suction cups that can hold just about anything if you have the right surface plus they are completely adjustable to any angle and position that you may need.

Where did you find the cup holder inserts? My DW would love one of these on her side of the coach. Thanks

I'm in the final steps for the passenger side cup holder desk. Had some trouble getting the fabric for the front but, finally thru Flexsteel's help have it comming to match the seats. In stead of a rack for maps the DW opted for a soft matching front so her legs wouldn't hit wood, as well as 2 cup holders ( 1 front & 1 back). Staining is done, poly being applied today. Maybe 4-5 coats and then install in coach. I'll post the final pictures to the link below.

Cup holders
I worked for FedEx vehicle maintenance for may years. Try Millsupply.com for cup holders.
Here's the link: https://www.millsupply.com/search.ph...&e=0&submit=Go
The folding cup holder they sell is far superior to a similar one sold by RV stores. (I've tried both.) I used to put the folding cup holders in all my walk-in vans.
They also sell an excellent dash fan. Shipping can be on the higher side, so bundle orders when you can.
Mill supply is also a good source for a lot of mechanical parts that fit class C motor homes.

Ditto on the source for the cup holder. Looks like the one that is missing from my DW's side of the coach.
