I bought this junction produce table from a RX and trim it down to fit my ls460.

I've never really understood the function of those mini tables. I'm not bashing on them, but what's the actual point of them?

just the glossy wood look. it is just for eye candy to me. if it is not functional it is not usually on/in my car...

honestly I hate clutter and my OCD kicks in so I am more of a minimalist and consider this to be just like going to autozone and buying stick on parts for the sake of having stick on parts...

but they are pretty though. just like my wife's fancy shoes when she gets her toes done :D

no points, the only points you get are cool points when you show up with a full on detailed interior at a car show or car meet :)

If you look at the 80's/90's Japanese luxury cars, they always put these in the back seats so the executives could work while they're driven around. The Nissan Century had one with a minibar in the rear center arm rest and a dictation tape recorder as well. The tables were like airline tables and folded down. It just impressed people. There was a big "Taxi bar" scandal about 4 years ago where taxi drivers who picked up MP's from the Diet building would keep a cooler with alcoholic beverages in the taxi and given them to passengers complimentary. They were just competing for clients because MP's live so far away from the Diet building that it was usually a 10,000 yen fare. You could get your entire day's salary in just one fare by just picking up a 200 yen drink.

YUP ^ ^ ^.

i don't mind the rear seat amenities but the front ones just seem a little too much for me. maybe if i lived in mainland japan and my car was basically my life and my little capsule, and i were single and wanted to impress the ladies. here in okinawa we are rarely in our cars for more than an hour at a time, unless you are stuck in some serious traffic or going from north to south of the island. we live about in the middle of the island so if i'm in my car for more than an hour i'm doing it wrong... :D

Sometimes it's a bit much, like the hydraulic doors on taxis.

I Was debating getting one so that I could have functional cup holders in my SC. any thoughts? or other options?

If your car has air bags, I'm guessing this table would interfere and could cause injury. Just a consideration.

Yeah that is the only issue I have with it, other than not being overly happy with the style. I'd grow to like it for it's function. I could remove the airbag... I'd like to be safe though since I will be driving this and not a show car lol. hmmmmm

This is what drives me away from these trays. I am considering getting one of those rear ones made, and I'm surprised there aren't any in this thread. Its cool to see the VIP'd out trays having a strong presence, i remember when that guy was just starting out.

I made a rear console for my 2GS, wanted something that also served as a comfortable armrest for passengers.

Did a front table as well in the style of the Vipdout/Garson tables but with walnut and stain mixed to match my factory wood.
