How to keep the cup holder closed?

My cup holder just opened yesterday on the way home from work and I can't get it to stay closed.

Any suggestions?

Also, does anyone know where the IAT/MFS sensor is located on a 2005 Crossfire LTD convertable?

Thanks for your help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Make sure it is silver duct tape... However, if it will not close, you may want to look into replacing it with a plastic bin. Do a search here in the forum and you should be able to find the part number.

Re: How to keep the cup holder closed?

Samething happened to mine. $220 to replace and $80 to make it a storage hole quotes from the dealer.

Another member mentioned he used velcro. I bought little 1/2 inch square self sticking velcro. I placed a piece on the middle of the forward facing surface of cupholder and a piece on the inside edge of console.

Works great (a little harder to open), and can't even see it open or closed.
