Video tutorial on how to replace the front cup holder in your BMW E39. In this video I have used an aftermarket replacement rather than an OEM part. The aftermarket manufacture of this cup hold is made by JL Germany. This particular tutorial was done on a 1997 BMW 540i E39.

Tools/Supplies Needed:
-phillips screwdriver
-replacement cup holder

Procedure:
-first start by opening the cup holder
-if you are unable to open it, try to pop in a standard/flat screw driver along side the cup holder and pry it open
-remove the two phillips screws hidden under each cup holder
-remove the screws completely, a magnetic will help in this scenario, this ensures the screws will not bind up on the opening
-pull the cup holder assembly out
-ensure there are no broken pieces left inside the cavity which can cause fitment issues or just general rattles
-insert the new cup holder
-it may help to remove the HVAC panel to assist the cup holder in the hole
-reinstall the phillips screws
