IMPORTANT NOTE

Installation Instructions

1. Remove the Existing Storage Bucket

Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the factory storage bucket.

2. Disconnect the 12V Socket

From inside the panel, push the 12V socket out of its mounting and disconnect the wiring harness.

3. Extend the Wiring Harness

Feed the wiring harness back through the opening and connect the supplied harness extension.

4. Install the 12v Socket into the Cup Holder

The 12v Socket installs as a push fit. 

5. Apply the Foam Strip (If Required)

If your vehicle has a plastic or carbon fibre shifter tunnel without a carpet or leather covering, apply the supplied foam strip to the underside of the bottom cup holder.

6. Tab Alignment check

Check the alignment between the screw tab and the bracket. If misalligned, move the tab to ensure the hole in the tab doesnt overlap the slot in thebracket. 

7. Install the Cup Holder

Move the seat fully forward to improve access, then lower the cup holder into position from above and connect the 12v wiring to the socket.


Press the cup holder into place over the interior panel so that it sits in the same position as the OEM storage bucket.

Do not apply excessive pressure when trying to align as this will risk damage to the cup holder or the existing trim. You may need to squeeze in the sides of the OEM trim to marry up with the cup holder if they have flared out. Otherwise the cup holder should sit into position with minimal effort.

The cup holder is correctly positioned when the lower section sits flush against the shifter tunnel and there are no gaps between the trim and the top half of the cup holder. 

8. Secure the Cup Holder

First, check that the cup holder screw hole is aligned with the tab you adjusted in step 6. If it doesnt look aligned, adjust the tab and re-check. 

Install the supplied mounting screw until snug without overtightening to avoid damage to the cup holder or the captive screw tab.

9. Install the Cup Holder Inserts

Remove the adhesive backing from the supplied insert(s) and place them into the cup holder recesses.
