Dash Cup Holder
I accidently got a screw somehow behind the drivers side cup holder. Now the cup holder will not close completely. Is there a way to take out the cup holder so i can get the screw out. I really do not want to take the whole dash out to get it. Is there any alternative. Does anyone know if we can remove cup holder somehow.
Thanks. |

Short answer, no. I just had my dash out a few days ago, and it's actually not that tough.
Have you tried a small magnet? Or driving down a rough road with the cup holder partially open to see if it dislodges? |

here is what you do..
take a rubber hammer (so you dont damage the outside of the cup holder). then hit that outside of the cup holder as hard as you can to get it closed again.. then once you got it closed again.. superglue that boy to the dash.. s houldnt be drinking and driving anyways.. kiddings.. i honestly dont know.. haven't played with that department yet |

of the Instrument Panel pdf that describes how to remove the cupholder. Here is a link to the pdf I mentioned above: http://www.etimago.com/yaris/repairm...nt%20Panel.pdf Also, there are some pics on this posting that might help you. NOTE: He doesn't mention removing the cup holder spring as listed in step 17 on page 23 above. http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/sho...06&postcount=9 Quote:
