I bought this

fits snug but when closing the armrest the catch doesnt lock because the mecanism on the hinge fouls on the back of the cupholder. Anyone got any ideas?

Think I know what you mean .... Couple of washers to raise the hinge up ?

Sounds like a plan, will have to pop out the back and into work tosee what I can find.

And ... I've still got those wheels. That Xmas bonus would take care of most of it ... ;)

I know, I know, keep seeing your ebay ad as i'm scanning for parts.

If I come pick them up in the new year will have to have a proper photoshoot as I haven't got any decent pics of mne yet,

Standard on all 03 plates or newer (maybe some 52's?) have you tryed rotating it to see if it makes a difference? I think the pen holder should be closest to the drivers seat.

It seems a bit random, I didn't get one but my nephew did, he didn't want it so he gave it to me. Mine doesn't close either.
