D3 'cup holder' in the dash?

[sinistr]

hey guys,

I'm curious is all D3s had the cup holder installed in the dash - passenger side next to the glove box?

there's a spot there which you're supposed to press and the cup holder pops out - but wandering if mine is stuck as it doesn't come out OR if its only the SE or HSE models that have it and the S models dont?

silly i know - there's already enough cup holders but if there ever was a competition which car has more cup holders - this could be the winning 'secret' :p

thanks
Mike

My S model 'doesn't' have one there either.

Wasn't in my D3 nor any other I looked at. The only cup holders were the two forward of the gear shift.

Mine magically appears when pressed. That makes 11 cup and/or bottle holders.

You can retrofit them to S and SE D3's.

Not standard on S models but as jonesy63 says they can be retrofitted (without much trouble I believe). First get the part...

My 05 SE has one, the spring thingy is broken though so it doesn't pop out by its self any more you have to push it and then pull.
