I am looking to buy the brushed aluminium centre console/vents/etc off of vaglink:
http://www.vaglink.com/VAG/Polo_9N2_9N3 ... N2_9N3.htm
But the problem is that the cup holder is on the wrong side! How do I resolve this!>?!!? Cheers

If the finish is similar to the GTi centre console, you could buy a GTi spec cupholder?

Mate, just go into the parts dept at a quiet time (ie: not lunchtime, Saturday etc) and say you need the silver cupholder for the Polo GTi. It shouldn't be a problem for them to look it up, but take a reg number from autotrader just in case.
I've got some seriously obscure parts in this way. Never fails to ask the experts!
