Hi, yes I have one and it's tops. The upside is of course great for storage of junk such as pens,coins,cd's,getaway drivers mask,pets,your collection of china T cups. etc etc and all kinds of odds and ends. The cup holders are good (when parked) but as soon as you take off that cup is gonna tip up and burn your nads (are you him or her) the problem is for some reason the cup holes are very shallow so as soon as the drink get to under half way (dont get me started on the cups half full/empty stuff) the weight is not enough to hold the cup in place. (hope this makes some kind of sense) all in all I have no idea why this was not a standerd fitting from the factory. Sorry to be so long winded. So in answer to your ? yes very on the level. I would say get one :?

The dearer of the ones JK do it like the one I have - much tougher and better made than the cheapy one that I had for a while - worth the extra money IMO
