Sliding cup holder cover
Does anyone know if I can purchase the “slide cover” for the cup holder separately or does it come as an assembly ? Mine broke yesterday 2007. Best place to purchase part? Thank you

It was a poor, but common, design in the early 2000s (my girlfriend's Acura has essentially the same lid).
I got a thin pice of 3M double sided adhesive (the one that is good at elevated temperatures since the interior gets hot), put the pieces back together best I could, covered them with adhesive, then put a piece of leather that matched my seats/boots over it. (these photos were my first attempt and it did not turn out as smooth as I wanted ... I redid it with a second piece of leather and it worked much better.) Works great. Has been about two years so far ...

I hate to tell you, there not made anymore, and everyone has the same problem, I bought one years ago from junk yard, the cover didn't last long either.
I just leave it open!

Mine broke, duct taped the underside sprayed a rubberized paint over the top ... looked great. Then 2 yrs later paint finally cracked, purchased a new one from Zip. ( I would not recommend the product.)

Mine broke right behind the little tab to open/close it. Cut a strip of Gorrilla duct tape to put on the underside. So far so good. Try not to use it much.

How to replace the cup assy?
Hi all. My sliding cup holder cover broke yesterday when I tried to close it. Thanks for the links, but how do you take this thing apart to replace it? I checked YouTube, but couldn't find anything.
