Review on URO Parts 51168190205 Cup Holder, Front: Convenient and Durable Cup Storage Solution for Easy Access by Mike Lunde

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Inexpensive, difficult to install

I ordered this at the same time as a replacement rear cup holder for my E39. The tail was replaced in about 30 seconds. The front was a different story. I found a few mentions online of where the screws were hiding, but then it was a hassle to get a new one to fit the same slot. I ended up breaking the locking mechanism on the right cup holder when trying to fit it into the dash. Now I've pushed the coin into the slot so it stays closed (like the broken one I replaced). It's possible this was user error, but bear this in mind when purchasing.

Pros
  • Replace your broken factory cup holder before spilled drinks ruin your car's interior
Cons
  • Requires an outlet
