Another 'What is this?'

[Hillclimber]

I found this inside the large cubby bin at the bottom of the dash. Looks like it belongs somewhere in/on the dashboard but where?

It’s the support for the drinks holders. Mine fell off last week & I can’t get it back. I was going to ask for help but you beat me to it!

I came across this pic in Internet wandering and remembered this post, look like it's been answered but the pic might help.

Thanks. That has answered the important question of how it fits! Now just got to see if I can put mine back together!

I need to look at mine also as I'm not sure I even have that, which looks like a lever to tighten the grip on a cup.

Just to let everyone know that the part has been refitted. The two pivots (near the top of the item in my pic) fit into two holes on the underside of the main part. Positioned one pivot then pushed the other side up and it clicked into place. Now just need to test that it will hold a full cup without dropping.

Well done, I fitted mine this afternoon

Mine is definitely missing - I don't suppose there is a part number on it?

Never mind - sourced a complete unit from ebay.

Don't forget to let us know how you get on with fitting the new one. We might need to be following suit!

Ok, so I cheated and detached the cup support on the replacement and it was a simple click into place job.

I didn't fancy having to take the lower dashboard / console apart, at least not today.
