Hey guys, I need to get a marquee retainer or something that will hold my fresh cut plexi.

I also would like about 6 foldable cup holders.

any input?

thanks

You know what I do when I need a marquee retainer?

I go to the hardware store and look for a metal piece of corner molding, which I paint black and then cut to size. It works perfectly, and you can usually get a 10 or 12 foot piece for a couple of bucks. I probably still have 8 feet left on my current chunk of the stuff. This is MUCH cheaper than paying for a marquee retainer from happs.

I always try to find hardware store solutions. No shipping, often cheaper, and easily replaceable.

For cupholders try an auto parts store. But beware, cupholders lead to the dark side.

As far as cup holders go the flip down ones that have been talked about here are a nice solution--they are flat black plastic that will mount on virtually any cab cleanly see do a search on cup holder and if the BYOAC gods are favourable a post should come up with pics etc.  personally the kind that slide into your cab are the best but not the esiest to install.

As far as the marquee retainer goes--unless you live beside happ controls--do what paige (and I) do--Hardware store.

Sprucemoose:
Check boating stores or outdoor stores such as Gander Mountain for cup holders.  I bought a couple of the flip up sytle there for $2 a piece.
