The 2 cup holder center console is a good idea. If I can suggest using the "Big Gulp" quickie mart cups for a mold. The bottom portion of them of course because they're designed to fit most if not all automotive cup holders. Looking forward to seeing your progress.

Question. Do you still intend to use the console for limited storage? The reason I ask is, if you mold a cupholder into the lid, will cupholder cradle be too deep to open the lid?

no this will mainly jus be a couple holder no more lid it will have a bottom to it so if you wanted to toss loose change or anything else for that matter when not in cup holding mode you could do so, first pick of what im tryin to do that what im using for reference and also make it deeper than whats shown
