Cup Holders: State of Nine or Boater's World

I bought two State of Nine black fold-down ones, stick to glovebox door with provided 3M trim adhesive tape, or can be screwed on. Not cheap but work pretty well. Kind of a long reach over there but doesn't get in way of anything. Not the most ideal holder for a cup but secure enough.
They're made by a midwestern marine outfit, ITC Marine, and I found them on their web site for less but without the generous pre-applied peel-and-stick tape. Claim to be of nylon, and have stainless steel springs.
Boater's World or other marine supply places sell almost-identical Chinese copies of these but all plastic and probably more break prone. Lots cheaper.
Also I just bought a 92 900s and a prior owner had installed two cupholders screwed into the top 1/2" strip of front cubby-console just above ash tray. Ash tray was removed for clearance - so quit smoking, a good idea anyway.
There's no brand on these, black plastic, two self-tapping screws attach the bracket with two little arms to the car, then the cup holder itself pops down in. A rim around it about 2" high. The holder bracket has slots and can slide side-to-side about 1", screws have plastic spacers and washers.
They had a little plastic tab that folded down to tighten up the cup space for small cups but that was a pain to flip out of the way so I busted it out. I like these a lot, if I can find a name on the back of the bracket I'll post it on here.
