It was easy to take out, now it's a BITCH to put in. Any suggestions?   Rick Neff (Lostinboston) New Member Username: Lostinboston Post Number: 21 Registered: 06-2003 Posted on Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 11:26 am:    I have the same problem. The spring has to be lined up perfectly otherwise it'll jam.   Erik Geagan (Geagan) Member Username: Geagan Post Number: 171 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 11:34 am:    I broke it...

It works the same you just have to exert a little more energy to pull it out by hand now. Tucks away exactly the same. A little more durable, relative to the sub-par design.   Justin (Vanroth) Member Username: Vanroth Post Number: 104 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Sunday, September 14, 2003 - 10:52 pm:    Cup holder is a royal pain to get back in... I hooked the spring up against the rotating alignment pin on the top of the opening. This usually will get the spring in the right position when you push the cup holder in. It will take a few tries... Believe me, putting the cup holder back in has been one of the most difficult things I've ever had to fix on my disco! -justin   Rob Caulfield (Wrldky) Member Username: Wrldky Post Number: 52 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Monday, September 15, 2003 - 10:47 am:    It took me a while but I was able to fix it and place it back in with no problems. Of course it broke again 2 weeks later. Anyone know where we could get a new spring?   Erik Geagan (Geagan) Member Username: Geagan Post Number: 174 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Monday, September 15, 2003 - 07:50 pm:    How bout directions on putting the thing in?   Rob Caulfield (Wrldky) Member Username: Wrldky Post Number: 53 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Monday, September 15, 2003 - 09:11 pm:    Eric, You are having trouble putting the cup holder back together correct? Not just installing unit back in the console?   Erik Geagan (Geagan) Member Username: Geagan Post Number: 175 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Friday, September 19, 2003 - 06:57 am:    I'm having problems putting the unit back into the console. I snaped the two tabs that keeps it in place, but I was thinking about glueing it in there (at least the main part
