My car has the same part as gaz's. If its easy to remove I will look for a part number in the back.

Why would you want to get rid of the BEST cup holder design ever made?

OP did say that its never used and maybe he uses the ashpot for err, ash , so the coin tray is a good alternative.. ... - .- -.

I'll second that - best cup holder by far, you can fit anything in it, and the design is brilliant - it's one of the first things I show people when they look at the car - everyone loves it! |

And in the newer version, it took them about 5 minutes to rob a design from something rubbish, probably American, and they never bothered to try and see if it worked in the uk.

Hmm, maybe I should try using the cup holder!! However, I do use the ash pot area for my thermos mug ( the only drink I ever have!), and also the rubber coating on the folding cup holder is looking very shabby.... No-one does a walnut trim piece to cover it do they?? |

As promised, the part number on the back of the Coin Tray is FHM500130.
