Cup holder question (2002 clk 430)
So I need to buy a new cup holder for the front arm rest because mines came missing. Where can I buy a new one? and how much do they go for usually? And is it easy to install?
Also, the backseat cup holder, when I push it, it barely comes out, I pretty much have to pull it to have it come out completely..Is it supposed to be like that..?

I took mine out after I noticed I could fit a 32 oz drink in the spot once the cup holder was removed, much better without it plus, the MB cup holders in these cars are to short and I have seen more than a couple of people tip a drink over in a turn because of it, almost happened to me before too.
I remember once I went to Mc Donalds for a late night shake and the drive through kid was like "cool secret compartment" when I opened that compartment to place the large shake down in it. Never would have made it with the cup holder. Now I realize the kid, being a kid was easily impressed bit you get the point.
I'll go see if I still have mine laying around in the gargage, If I do you can have it free less shipping.
