USA Golf Cup holders or European?
« on: 23 February 2010, 11:43 »
I saw this advertised on vwvortex.com which is american. I saw this cup holder in the front just underneath the heater control. I have a storage area like that, same shape etc but i was wondering if this was only available in USA or did UK/European golfs have that?

It would be perfect but dont want to waste my time trying to look for something if it didnt come/fit in UK golfs lol

They won't fit without some cutting since they are made to fit LHD centre consoles.

Would that matter because its centre of the dash or does it angle slightly towards the driver

USA Ebay have loads

I don't think so  :sad: BoneyBradley might know though since he knows a lot about mk3 specs.

nope it was us only but can be trimmed to fit rhd easily.......... I do know the yanks love our euro parts and vice versa but getting stuff accross the pond can be a nightmare (that's why us bumpers etc sell for so much here)
