Default cupholders

i can't seem to search this forum very well, but my cupholders are broken, and from what i can see modern-design-wise they suck anyway. where at the very least can i get a replacement, and what should i do with them now or eventually to make both of the crappy ones into one good one at least or what? anybody know whatsup?

Best bet is to buy one from the Classifieds from someone doing a part-out. ECS gets like $118 for them which is asinine.

Do you have the pre-facelift cup holders that pop up next to the parking brake handle but don't work worth a **** and always break, or the facelift cupholder that pops out of the dash near the hazard switch but doesn't work worth a **** and always breaks?

^^^ Lol :] ^^^ I have found just squeezing the drink in the side door pockets works way better than any of the three different designed cup holders. They all blow lol.

That's what I do too, you can fit anything into those massive pockets and I've never spilled a drop, even with fountain drinks. I replaced my pop-out cupholder with a change holder from a B6, so much more useful.
