Cupholder Divider Issue

Recommended Posts

Ok my only real issue (except for the black hole fun -see other post) I have had in 3+ years of my 2008 es350 is the !@#$% cup holder in the console has that adjustable divider and it started loosening its grip over first year.. got loose so i used to add some paper to make it stick but got worse. I put in a plastic eva bottle (gatorade and water ) to the gym and use it for water and my plastic venti cup for coffee.

Plastic piece finally broke from my adjusting playing.. -- and I use Shoe goo --so put the piece back using long nose pliers and shoe goo and it id like new the extra shoe goo is pliable enough to let it help grip the adjustable piece.

anyone else have the divider get loose on them?

cheers

Never had any problems on either car. Did you talk to dealer for replacement? Or is the car now out of warranty.?

not yet-- I am due my 36 k final appointment (had 3 year maint plan) I fixed it fine (better than in years) so i am happy. shoe goo rules!!! I became aware shoe goo when the rubber tip cam off my rim cleaner and i couldn't find. So to put a protective covering over the steel wire tip someone suggested shoe goo..

Great stuff (think duct tape ;-)
