I just bought a 20oz coke and I took a sip and put it down for a sec. The light turns red and I break and I hear gulp gulp gulp. I was like OH NO!! I look at the bottle and its half empty. When I turned my light on, I only saw a little bit of coke by my shifter. It ALL went through the shifter down to the carpet. Now I have to take it apart and clean it! I think its time for new cupholders.

Damn..... the same thing happens to me all da time...... Except that I don't drink coke... How can you clean it up if it went down through the shift gate? Just wondering.......

 

No liquids allowed. Problem solved.

I put just about everything else in the cupholder area besides cups. Cell phone, reciepts, money, condoms, etc...

What year is your TL? I have a 99TL and I am going to get the new 02TL cupholders tomorrow. I heard they are deeper for better storage of your drinks.

 

Its a 99.

 

Yeah i hate when my 40 oz spills, takes forever to clean!

yeah, samething happened to me once, after that, no beverage's allowed. but then, I checked out the new 2001 cupholders which are great, but the dealer was going to charge 89.95 for that thing... anyone can get it for cheaper? I'm willing to pay the shippint, too...

Andy, Are you serious?

I could have sworn someone got them for like 10 bucks or something like that.. are you sure its just the part that can be taken out of that area? Its just a piece of plastic.

That's what I thought. I heard like $8 bucks for it. It can't be $85. I will find out tomorrow when I pick up my car from the dealer. Therefore I will post the amount for it tomorrow night.

holy...maybe its a typo...$8.95 ? Ima order a cupholder too once someone confirms that the acura symbol for the steering wheel can fit somehow on 99-01s...save myself a trip there.

 

The cupholder in my 01 TL is actually not that big. Just wonder how big you guys are talking about.

 

same here....I have a 00 TL and I don't think my cup holder can fit a drink like that.

 

hahaha I hear ya!!! They don't make holders big enuff for my muthaf'in Old English Jug 64OZ!!

 

I got the same price as Red Hot TL from the dealership. I told him all I wanted was the insert part, but he said that you needed to buy another piece along with it. I think I'm going to just tell the parts guy the exact part number I need.

Andy, The price the dealer quoted you was for the entire box, including cupholders, for your TL. Tell them that you only want the insert section. My dealer charged me around $13 for the insert only. If you can't get just the insert send me an email and I will ship you one from KC.
