Anyone from this forum has teardown the cup holder from 2002+ (i know is odd!!), i'm Looking for a picture of the internal mechanism that moves the front plastic tab (the one with the cup imprint..) away as the cup holder opens.

Long story short, i found a broken plastic part that comes from this area and now the cup holder is not working properly. i tear down mine but for some reason i dont have the whole piece and dont know its real shape. i was thinking that maybe i can fabricate this part and repair.

 

I have not messed with it, but both my turbo and C4S have broken cup holders, flimsy delicate plastic bits that break off easily when closing the otherwise sturdy mechanism.

 

Resurrecting this thread, looking for a "how to remove" cup holder assy. Mine wont open, need to fix/replace. Thanks.

 

Push that flat piece with the cup symbol to the right to make sure it's not getting stuck on the left side of the dash. If still not opening, try and get something behind it in that spot. If you pull the horsehoe trim you can see its bolted in.
