cup holder size
looking tips on how to enlarge the cupholder hole, the smallest ones I could find were 3" for the rear seat location, looks like they will work, but I need to enlarge the hole without destroying the interior panel

Grinding it out is about the only way, w/ out removing the top of the seat!!! It's a real pain but worth it in the end... I managed to only nick up 1 Lil piece on my side panel

Take 2x4 or 2 x6 drill with correct size hole saw. Hold board over where you want new hole cut. Use an xacto to cut upholstery. Hold 2 x 4 firmly using the hole already drilled as a guide and drill hole. Glue upholstery back down or use flange from cupholders to hols upholstery into place.

I used a roto zip to cut thru the vinyl and the wood at the same time. I like the hole saw with the template 2x4 better. Wish I known that idea. Sounds quick and precise.
