Ultimate Cup Holder?

I got a pair and was looking for Boxster specific instructions. There are none on the website that I could find so I did my best.

Could someone post a pic of their install in a 986 so I can tell if I am putting it in the right place? Thanks in advance!

John

Just shove that top bracket part up behind the trim piece on the center console. Just pushes up in there. Doesn't seem to hold that tight but works very, very well.

Did you try doing a search? There has been a lot of discussion of these and the pic you want has been posted a couple of times.

All you have to do is hit this magic button and a world of information becomes available to you.

And, like the Ultimate Cup Holders (which I just ordered a pair that will come in handy on our trip down to NC for the BRBS) - these are fully adjustable!


Just noticed I worked in "pair" and "handy" into the sentence above
