Can the Drinks holders in centre be removed to clean?

Ideally could do with removing Rubber holders so I can clean ( slippage)
Don't want to pull too much in case I damage- are they designed to be removed? if so how?
Many thanks

Just pull them up, they do come out, no probs.

uhmm I'm also curious about this. Can you post pics of your holder removed? I tried removing mine and it appears to be glued down. I can't remove the holder unless I try to force it out.

Never been able to get mine out.

I'll have a go tonight and post a pic

I've just been out to try mine and it is extremely well stuck down inside the mounting with what may be double sided sticky tape of industrial strength. You may need the wife/ girl friend's hair dryer to warm up the pads and to soften the adhesive.

I'm sure that on my last car they were removable - maybe this is a rattle mitigation
feature now with them being stuck in place.

2012 firmly stuck. You can get the rubber base of the other cubby out without difficulty. Got mine stuck on nozzle the vacuum cleaner.

March 2012 car - comes out easily, no sign of any glue.

Funny I had this question as well, pulled about a hard as I dared and not wanting to come out...every other vehicle I've owned they came out for cleaning purposes....

2011 Stuck Firm at the base Too
