    Over extended cupholder

    I made the mistake of putting a bit too large of a drink in, and now this has happened, fixable or am I SOL?

    See my write up in the DIY section. Very fixable and it will never break again.

    I went to look at your DIY but I'm only seeing pinned posts and one diy in there? Do I need to change some settings or something?

    The DIY posts are all pretty old so you need to look toward the bottom of the page under "thread display options". On the left side there's a box for "show threads from the". Select "beginning" rather than the last year. They are in there just a little buried :-).

    I am so lost reading the guide for some reason, also do I need tools to fix this, I'm a bit short handed right now.
