    If you mean the centre console cup holder in a vt/vx, it just pulls straight up from the top.

    Don't be afraid to break it. Give it a good pull from front or back pushing in towards the center. It will pop out no probs.

    Check the attachment, printer is low on ink.
    It didn't turn out like I'd hoped, you will need to rotate it. (click on the VIEW tab and rotate)

    just tried to pull it out from the top but it wont budge, my whole centre console is sitting in my loungeroom at the moment, i managed to get the handbrake button, dash bin and gear shifter button all done but this is wanting to be nice to me.., does not budge when pulling up firmly

    I just pulled out my cup holder for the hell of it and it came out super easy, as per instructions but I didn't see the grey foam of which you speak.

    On closer inspection I found the foam bit you mentioned. I don't see what it's purpose is but it must be there for a reason. Mine is glued to the spring itself.
