When we test drove a bunch of cars, BMW, Lexus for my wifes purchase and also for my Benz purchase, at several dealers, there never was a sales person present on the test drives. Maybe it was because I was with my wife so they didn't want to sit in the back...

I'm thinking to do this mod also.

Does anyone have pics of the inside?
Since I have the UHI phone inside I don't know where it goes on the cup holder version!

Here are some pictures i found, i hope this can help you. I would order the part but i'm afraid that it wont fit for some strange reasons. Nobody seems to know about this issue either.

Yeah, I've had my 350 since about November and I didn't find out about that until a couple weeks ago.

I need to see the hinges and the way it opens to see it it's just the top that can be switched or it has to be the whole console.

I just changed my console from lid to cup holder

I picked up a used cup holder console on ebay, the base of the console are the same the leather part that runs along side of the wood grain is the same with a little bremel cutting, the upper part is different which you will need from the donor console. The lid of the lid console unclips and the cup holder lid slides in. about 6 hours of work. If any interest I can give you a step by step instructions

I'm all over this as well if there is a suitable way to do it. That single dash mount cup holder is awful.
