RE: worthless cupholders
sorry guys, my coin holder is in the armrest, so i'm not sure where exactly youre talking about, but the passat cupholders are very sturdy and i drive pretty fast with no problems. I would say any cup holder that goes in your dash is no good, I've seen a few threads with disaster stories about dash cupholders.

RE: worthless cupholders
I have found stuff on how to install and how great the passat cupholders are. They all say that they can be found for like $35, one even said $28. I haven't been able to find them any way other than the VW dealership ($55) and clairparts.com ($49). Does anyone know of anywhere alse they can be found for cheaper (other than ebay)?

I think clairparts used to sell them for about 30 bucks until they realized that they could charge 50 and people would still buy em, they're very popular. supply and demand's a bitch.

impexfap.com has them for 52.69. Its cheaper than dealer by two dollars and with shipping would be more. Also clairparts.com is prob. more with shipping so i think i just buy it from the local dealer. Thanx for the help!

RE: worthless cupholders
I installed the passat cupholders today. They work great but the dealership had them for 55 but i got some money off. I just tested them with a bottle water and a can they both worked great. The bottle looked like it was going to fall out on left hand turns but never did. I went on a fast (around 50) curving road and couldn't make them fall out. I even did a hard U-turn and they still didn't fall out. So i am a happy customer especially since the a4 cup holders just suck period.
Thanks everyone for all your help!
