I was just wondering if anyone here has changed their cupholders. I remember a while back, someone said they did in fact change them and were able to hold large Starbucks coffees. Any ideas or photos. Thanks

The 7 series has some nice holders in the centre console, to bad our 5's don't have enough room for them. I am so paranoid using the ones we have for hot coffee, if they fly out, it is the passenger that will feel the brunt of it, Hmmm, wonder if the wife would sue me alla MC D's?

My replacement is on order. Stuck in, then stuck out. Finally got it to retract after repeated yanks and firm pushes.

Why don' they leave that crap to the Japanese?

Mine will hold Starbuck's Ventis as is--even with the sleeve on. No big gulps though.
