Abstract
A removably mountable and selectively positionable dashboard tray for holding food, utensils, debris, spillage or the like having an aperture specially adapted for releasable retentive engagement to a footholder for a footed cup or cupholder. Continuous upraised rims extend from both the outer edge of the dashboard tray and that portion of the dashboard tray which is adjacent to the aperture. The aperture adaptations include centering lugs and co-located shoulders in which a circle may be circumscribed whose diameter is smaller than the footholder. The centering lugs project into the aperture so that when the footholder is engaged herewith, the lugs flex away from the axis of the footholder to provide a releasable snap fit of the tray to the footholder.
