It is interesting.  Never seen one like that before.  I don't think he will get the asking price, though.

Looking at the design, I think the fit would be poor.  The area where the ALDL and lighter receptacle is located is actually recessed into the face of the console.  This cup holder has that area slightly raised.  There would be too much space in that area unless unusually long screws were used, and there's no way to secure it at the edges or at the back. 
There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

I was unable to visualize the fit.  Did not look at the price.  It would seem to be in the way.

It said the price started at $180.

That would be useless in my car, my arms are long enough that I need the arm rest, plus it would be in the way of shifting. I pass

For posterity:


Me, too.  I don't have ape-like arms or anything, but I use that space.
