    Can someone provide me feedback on those 2 products?

    Looking to add cup holder/interior inserts.

    Tufskinz will cost around $190 vs $29 from cup holder hero for everything!

    Am i missing something here?
    everything about cup holder hero seems better!

    1. No glue at bottom so not to ruin interior if removed
    2. Way cheaper!
    3. Looks and design are identical
    4. anti slip material, etc.

    Can someone tell me from experience pros & cons of each and which they prefer? I have a 2020 tundra, tks.

    I was just reading about cup holder hero...it doesn’t come with a mat for the console lid or the area in front of the shifter. One review said they melt in the heat. Another said they come out with your cup or fall out easily in cold weather. You can use some tape on the underside for that if you want.

    I bought something similar for my 2020 from Amazon and paid $25 or so. If you are looking for something that will give your interior a clean look and nothing else then these inserts will work. But if your looking for something to actually keep your drink in that cup holder then I would say keep searching. The mats under the cup holders don't do squat. Cups still move around like crazy. FYI I've had these inserts for almost a year now. The backseat cupholder ones are the ones that seem to always fall out FYI. Here's the amazon link of the ones I got

    I have the cup holder hero brand in my 2015 Honda Civic and 2020 Honda Pilot. I really like them and want to add them to my 2012 Tundra but unfortunately they don't have them for the 2007-2013 model.

    I wish they made a cup holder insert like my 2017 Burban. That stock cup holder insert has the HOLY Death GRIP on any cup LOL.

    Started with cup holder hero but ended up replacing with Tufskinz. Cup holder hero is flimsy by comparison.

    Great, appreciate the feedback. I needed it before justifying an extra $100 for inserts.

    I had Tufskinz installed in mine before I ripped them out and went for the cheaper alternative. Big mistake on my part, now I gotta pay up again for the Tufskinz, way better option!

    Tufskinz is made in Florida and a high quality product. I have their tailgate letters and am very happy with them.

    Yeah, I just purchased and installed the letters for the radio and grille as well as the interior padding for the console and am happy with them. I also bought this trim kit for above the dash and really like the look of it.

    I just wonder if the door handle surrounds and door panel surrounds would be over the top? They are quite pricy as well, would be about $400 to buy for all 4 doors.

    Do you have pics of your interior? I just bought the radio letters and am wondering how they look? Thinking about above steering wheel trim

    I got the Tufskinz vent rings to cover the chrome. Which they do very well. I ordered in the “Cement” color but I didn’t really like how the color looked and I dipped (Plasti-dip) them a dark gray and love how it came out. Also dipped the cupholder/shift gate area which also looks awesome.

    Super easy mods!
