996 3.4 ...............cup holders!!!!!

[scotty_917]

Can anyone tell me what the post MY 2001 car did for cup holders? The earlier cars seem to have the required 'holes' in the side air vents for the clip-on items.....but these holes are absent from the MY 2001 cars!......did the system change for that year (i.e. pre-facelift)......looking at chopping in our company oil burner...

They are above the stereo unit on facelift cars...press in the panel and they pop out

Is this your main purchasing criteria then??!!

it's a January 2001 registered car but 'pre-facelift'.....so thanks.....but no nearer the answer (& no, it's not the main purchasing decision)

IIRC 'facelift' came in at the same time as the usual annual 'model year' changes so it is possible that facelift cars are all post September 01. I may be a copule of months out but I'm prety sure face lift cars are all late 01 (or later of course!).
