Re: Cup holder will not stay down
Hey guys, here is one quick fix...the cupholder works great (at least on my 20 oz Steel coffee monster). The annoying trait is that it pops up into position with the ever so slightest tap...want to keep that bugger down in the hole 'till ya need it?...Well, then, if you disassemble the console (cupholder mounts from underside), you can remove the spring that loads it to the "use" position (small spring coil with wings at 90 degrees). Then you have to "manually" (oh, the agony!) press the rear of the top silver part, and it will lock into position just like always (extend spring and latch are separate mechanisms). Makes the damn thing much easier to live with. I did discover you can do this mod without removing console - the cupholder itself will pop out of housing if you pry it out just so...best regards...ct
