    Made plier holders for the 201.

    I used a couple 3/4" wire grommets and drilled 2 holes in the flat part of the console. Works perfect and there is nothing under that area that will be effected by a little water when it rains. Handy to get to, yet out if the way. You need grommets that have a fairly deep middle portion as the console is over 1/4" thick. I got the idea from a buddies ChampioN. His has a black vinyl tool holder mounted there, but the rubber grommets work just as good and cost less than $2.00 to put in.

    Good idea!

    The newer Champs have the tool holder molded into the console in that general area. Very handy...and clever of you to think of those grommets!!

    I used to use the TM tray, but mine kept getting wedged in under the pedal when I would run...
