I have a center consul between my seats that consists of a radio and below that is the cup holder and the ash tray that is push to deploy. My ash tray deploys fine however, the cup holder has to be pried out in order to be used. It was working fine until I had the car worked on. Now it won't come out unless I pry it out. Is this hard to repair and how do I get into it to fix it?

I had a similar problem with mine and found it to be the arms that hold the cup needed to be put back on track. When you pulll out the cupholder see if both cupholders will operate freely by squeesing them in with your fingers. If not check to see if one of the arms needs to be gently put back in its track.

Hope that helps
