There is no cover, it's a whole unit you have to replace

The best option with these cup holders is to buy them from a breakers; an OEM part will set you back about £40-50.
HOWEVER, they're a total pain to fit! Expect to take most of the central console and arm rest off to mount it as the screws are actually located underneath the moulded plastic.
The thread r.e. fitting these can be found at

Reading around the subject, I managed to get the job done c. 2h by taking off the rear arm rest, then dissasembling the centre console. It'll allow you the easiest access to the screws you need to take out in the right order, and avoids scratching any of the soft moulded plastic while doing 'the handbreak shuffle' to get to those two golden screws holding the cup holder in!

Absolutely, this little console is a pain in the a**s. It's kinda alot work but in the end it looks pretty fancy though

Woah!! You really went to town when getting yours out! In all honesty, I didn't touch the arm rest at all when swapping mine over, was able to wiggle the plastic around the cup holder up enough to get under it for the screws. Well worth it though

If you take the rear lettering off the boot lid it would look great in my opinion

Nice build!
May I ask what have you done with your OEM exhaust?

Nice rocco!
But have you noticed that you have 4 LEFT sided rims? Those wheels have a left and right side since they are supposed to poke inwards in their driving direction? Just a hint, see this picture and you might understand me

Yes I know that
The Vossen Wheels aren't like that but they are more expensive. Anyways most of the people wont recognize that I guess
but every detail counts I know^^
