cup holder help
Ok, so i know it's a very common problem with these crappy cup holders, but i'm going ot ask anyways.
The cup holders in question are the ones that are below the arm rest. My car is a 98 2.8 manual quattro if that makes any difference. They are both stuck closed. I was wondering how I owuld go about pulling out the dual holder unit. Is it just a matter of pulling? Or is there a latch somewhere along the line?

RE: cup holder help
yeah, the one right by the hand brake.
The part more towards the shifter has dropped down, i don't see any broken tabs, but it just hangs on by the other end, and bounces when i go over rough surfaces and makes an annoying sound at times. Is there any way to reattach that end of it w/o taking apart the center console? If anyone has got a schematic of how it all connects, it would help wonders. I just want to reattach the lose end to clean up the look.

RE: cup holder help
whats up everyone....
i have the same problem in mine. it actually still kind of functions but when closed it is not even, like one part is sticking out a little and another part is too far in. if u were to take it off is there something else u can put in its place to clean up the look? any ideas would be appreciated...
