VT VX cup holder

[Kernal]

With the VT VX cup holder, the one with the lid that came in the higher models. To fit them in a car that came with the standard ones do you have to change the center console?

[accentstencil]

I'm not sure but it looks to me like it should fit into the standard console.

[Kernal]

Nah it doesnt. I just bought the cupholder, wanted a cleaner look. And yeh, so the dont fit haha.

[accentstencil]

I would have thought that the consoles would be the same because I couldn't see Holden making a different console for the sake of a cup holder. Doesn't it fit into the same recess as the standard cup holder?

[Kernal]

Yeh i would think so too, but i tried and it doesnt fit. Unless im doing something wrong?

from the looks of my calais id say you will have to cut the bottom out of ur existing cup holder to fit the vx calais one in (im thinking this is what your talking about)

my mum use to have a vt berlina and only the top would come out of the cup holder but the vx calais come in one piece sotta thing hence needing to cut the bottom out of the console to fit it in...

but dont take my work as i havent looking into is that much

that is correct. you have to cut the bottom out of the existing cup holder to fit the deeper one in
