Can't you just stick something in there to elevate the cup?It's a toyota manufactured part, but I would happily settle for a generic part. As long as it
works. The extender part that's missing sits down inside the cup holder instead of on top.
I did, but wifey is not digging it.Can't you just stick something in there to elevate the cup?Jimmy Rig it
LOL
Jimmy Rig: To fix something regardless of how it looks or how long it lasts. Using
any materials that are available to you in a creative way to make something work.
Is this what you're looking for, Dan?I did, but wifey is not digging it.Turns out the front cup holder has the same extension piece and I just took it out and placed it in the rear cup holder, which is deeper and really needs the extension. The front cup holder without the extension piece still holds a standard size coffee cup with lid without the cup sinking too deep into the cup holder to take the cup back out. Problem solved.

That explains why the cup holders in my german car are so tiny.Drove German car manufacturers up the wall that Americans wanted stuff like this, in Germany the drivers first and only responsibility was to drive the car, if they wanted to drink coffee they would stop and get coffee, we seem to want it to be an extension of the living room, texting, doing makeup, doing paperwork, reading the paper, etc. is an American thing.
Here is the same part for $30.Looks similar. Wow! Over $40.

Did you ever get those pillows you were looking for? That was quite some time agoI did, but wifey is not digging it.Turns out the front cup holder has the same extension piece and I just took it out and placed it in the rear cup holder, which is deeper and really needs the extension.

My Calvin Klein pillows are holding up really well![]()
I was surprised they even made pillows. But they really are great pillows; I got them at Home SenseNow there's a brand I have not heard in a long time.I remember their
designer jeans (but I never owned a pair. I think they were only for women).
Recently, I removed the plastic extension piece from a cup holder in my wife's car to allow for a tall coffee cup to fit in the holder and now we can't find the extension piece to put back in the holder. My wife was leaving for work this morning and she stuck a standard size plastic coffee cup with lid in that holder and it sits too deep in the holder and when she went to pull the cup out, you guessed it, the lid came off and coffee spilled on her and the car seat! She was furious! We are still searching for the extension, but was wondering if anyone knows where to purchase a new one.I struck out after calling 3 different auto parts stores. The dealerships want way too much money for a new extension!
