Cupholder box in front of rear seats - question?

[Johann]

As part of the sapce box you get this rear box included with cupholders (http://www.audi-a2.co.uk/europe24.htm). My (maybe stupid) qustion is thus: can the rear seats still fold normal with this in place? How much is this box from Audi?

Hi,
this cupholder is in Germany part of the "multibox- system".
That means, the spacefloor box and the clip-on cupholder box with integrated storage box is one set.
It is it not possible to fold up the rear seats with the mounted middle area cupholder box !
But its very easy to remove the part.
Some pictures about this see European owners gal. no. 24 (my Audi A2).

Best regards

Thanks Alu2000... that is why I used your picture page as a reference. I won't buy the cupholder box then. I love the fact that I can tumble the seats without having to remove the headrests. Having to remove cupholders to do that is not worth it. I rarely have people in the back anyway... Thanks

Removing the cupholders to fold the seats takes all of about 2 seconds. The box is held in place by a mounting bracket and you just push a button to release it and lift it out. Believe me, still get one, it's very handy and just slots in and out VERY easily. Cost me about £32 inc VAT.

hmmm... sounds to good to be true... maybe I must just do it then... I had two friends only 3 weeks complaining that they did not have such nice cupholders as we had in the front!!!

Thanks

That's a good price, I paid £32+VAT from my Audi garage

Regards fitting, now I've got my camera (and I've still got to fit the rear bracket properly) I'll do it this weekend and send the photos in for everyone. I have still got the fitting instructions the Audi garage gave me, so I'll try to take a photo of those (or scan them) so you can see what's involved.

BTW Stu, do I not get a commission from VAGPARTS for them using MY photo? I guess I'd better get that 10% discount then!

Sorry about that - they did ask me last night and I should have asked you then - was going to email you tonight when I get home. I can provide them with a different photo if you'd prefer.
