bossjohnc Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 nonono... the cupholders don't occupy any din slots on the GTI, this was the case on earlier pre GTI models.The two holes I was talking about are screwholes which hold the cupholders on - I assume your switches/mirror adjuster are down below the heater controls?Feel below the bit which holds your radio/cd player, if there's nothing there there'll probably be two bolt/screwholes, one either side.

BigMon Posted December 10, 2004 Report Share Posted December 10, 2004 The thing that annoys me most, and the guy I share a lift to work with does this, is:1) Opening the doors to the fullest extent on a windy day and not keeping hold of them while they get in the car OR2) Doing the above while you're parked next to a car so that your door 'knocks' into the other car when he get in.We actually had an argument when he did number 2 and I got out to check my door after he'd done it. If he'd used a smidgen of brain power the situation wouldn't have happened would it. Dick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 I've got a hole in my passenger side speaker grille after a girl I gave a lift to hit it with her crutch on Wednesday (she has a bad knee).Really annoyed about it, and it's not like I can even fix it, cos I'd need a whole new lower door card, plus the two layers of Dynamat Extreme I'd put on the back of it. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":evil:" border="0" alt="evil.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 Oh, and then someone else left a plastic cup in it yesterday. I mean, it's not a big deal, but I don't go round littering in their crappy car, why should they do it in mine, especially when I always make a point of keeping it clean inside and out??

Adam Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 i do hate it when people leave rubbish in your door pockets, or bits of hard mud from the bottom of there trainers/shoes because they couldnt be arsedn to clean them before they put them on!

Nicki Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 Just getting back to the cup holder discussion briefly, I have a 2001 X plate GTi & have one cupholder (on the left) and a little felt lined coin tray on the right.

Crusoe Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 lol, you guys need to chill out a bit. Just drive like me when your giving them a lift and they'll not get in your car again haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bossjohnc Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 @Nicki - I beleive it *should* have 2 cupholders, but they are easy to change - Snoop has a coin tray for instance (bought it as a part and fitted it).However, as all other models (non GTI) have a cup holder/coin try combo, and yours was one of the first, it may have come like that as standard.
