the factory cup holders = junk. Get yourself one that attaches to your center console.

'95 model I'm guessing? Yeah, they are designed to where the first turn you make the cup/can/whatever falls over in the opposite direction that you turn. But they do have bottoms. My cup holder broke completely, though, about 6 years ago. I super glued it, but it's only for looks... not that I'd use it anyway. The thing would always spill my drinks, unless I was traveling in a straight line...

their not cup holder guys...their cup THROWERS! The reason yours is missing (and most by now) is that the bottoms are easy to remove, and then you can hold a drive thru soda of medium or large, or a 20 oz coffee and they don't chuck them into the seat, w/s, or floor. They do break though and I'm sure that's a large part of the problem. I don't even use mine anymore unless we're sitting still and need more than two. I bought a smoothie way back...are they still in production? But I didn't like it in the center console, so cut it off right behind the cup holders and mounted it in front of the center seat close to the floor. Works out better there for me. Anyway FWIW....
