Default Cup Holder - Is it open all the way?
I have searched this forum and not found anyone with this issue. My cup holder does not seem to open all the way. It cannot even accept a cup the same diameter as the inside because of the lid angle. Is this a design issue, defect with my car, or what? I do not have any cups that currently fit in and do not jam against this lid. 2009 IS250.

Which cup holders? The one by the doors? They are not really cup holders, more like for water bottle.

See how it sits at an angle without being fully open? Hope the pics help. Thanks for the responses.

Yea, yours seems to be stuck. Mine opens all the way (the lid should be pointing straight up).

There's probably a coin in there, open up the center console and see.

How do you get it apart? It is stopping against something hard. I knew this could not be right.

Guess I'll be headed back to the dealer. Stupid little things that bother you on such an awesome vehicle. Hey, don't want to spill my water on the console or break the wood opening either!!
