I have a 2013 535i. I know a common complaint is the center console cupholders below. The prongs make it impossible to fit most mugs in. I want o see about removing the prongs in the cupholders.
My question is how to you remove the cupholders on the first place? I’ve tried pulling on it but it doesn’t seem to budge. I’ve read a couple of threads on this but the application doesn’t seem to work.
Any suggestions?
It’s screwed down. You have to remove the trim around it first

I just cut a thin (maybe 0.020") piece of plastic about 4" x 6" and curl it up inside the cup holder. My travel mug just fits with the all prongs fully compressed. The plastic sheet acts as a ramp when i push my mug in to compress all the prongs.
