How did Jake fix your cup holder?

I believe Jake replaced his U.S. style center console with a Euro-style model which either does not have a cup holder or uses a different type of cup holder. He made the changes early enough in his ownership that the chromed plastic ring was still in good condition when he sent it to me.

If you look at one of my earlier posts you can see that I painted my trim ring black. It looks better than the bare yellow plastic, but not as good as the OEM chromed plastic. I may paint my older cup holder trim ring metallic silver to see whether it looks better.

I have found this (MOLOTOW) to be some of the best “chrome paint” to be out there…especially when working on a handmade DTR shield…

True, my car has a ROW (rest of world) center console from @MBenzNL …now with full illumination and ambient lighting!

That's a nice looking center console do the buttons work and what are they for?

Doesn't look like MBenzNL comes on here at all anymore... need to find a supplier of parts know any one else?
