I've got the '01 where the pop-out cupholders came from the factory mounted high in the centre of the front console, right over the stereo and heat/vent controls.

I had to replace the LCD screen in my HV controls, partly because they're crappy and partly because the previous owners dumped coffee or soda onto them from those useless cupholders.

I did the cupholderectomy, removed and sold the cupholders, and moved the HV controls to where they belonged in the top, above the stereo. Also got rid of the useless CD holder (4 cd's??) and replaced both lower openings with storage cubbies. I then made a custom iPod holder that attaches to one of the cubbies.

An Ultimate Cupholder on the passenger side and we're off to the races!

Before and after:
