my cup holder got sticky on last vegas trip, any one know how to get the damn thing out with out breaking it?

 

oh yeah its the retractable one in the front btw

 

just clean around it to get all the stickness off BTW should not use that cupholder i have had to replace 2 of my heater controls due to that cup holder use the ones underneath the armrest much better

 

hahaha.. sticky from vegas.. clean up when your done

 

yeah i noticed it just drips the residue onto the freakin symphony unit. what a crappy design. looks cool though =]

 

yeah i have a sticky #4 too i think i am just goig to remove the damn thing, good place for a turbo timer.

 

I installed passat cupholders in my car and they are great. I still hate the ones under the armest and the one above the radio didnt come in my car. These cupholders are one of my best mods, and mayeb my new brakes.

 

apg can you show pics of your passat cup holder?

i dont have pics of it and i dont have a camera at teh moment. Its a slim unit that is black and attactes to the plastic of the footwell type thing on the inner side (next to tranny tunnel). Its teh size of a book and as thin as 3 or 4 quarters. It folds up and folds down. Holds two cups, and has rubber on the bottom taht prevent it from falling. The only problem with it is taht under hard turns with the small (thin) water bottles they tend to fall out. Everything from cans to large McDs drinks fit. The ones with the lil bottom and top heavy i found fit perfect in the ones under the armrest and barely fit in the passat.

U can surley find pics of it on google. Bets 40 bucks i ever spent. Just be carefull when drilling the hole that u dont hit a wire if u go in deep.

 

ok thanks
