yes, there is just dead space under there, so if you carefully drilled 2
holes with a big  hole cutting bit on a drill, then you could maybe slide some PVC
pipe inserts down in there to house cups.

ps, what did the Armor All do to the dash??

i had my dash in my Audi crack after years of armor all use.   my mom, who
never cleaned her dash, never had a problem, and her Audi sat ungaraged for
years in the elements.

is armor all destructive to vinyl??

ps, i have  nice brown or black dashpads if anyone needs them..no cracks..
