F10 Cup holders

Has anyone tried removing these?
I don't have my 535 yet so I haven't had a chance to look, but I'm hoping that it's an inserted sub-assembly, which can easily be removed to provide a decent storage space for sunglasses etc.

Yes I know, but thanks anyway.
I'd still like the significant extra space in the centre.

Yes, the cup holder insert can be easily removed.

On the breakfast table
I wouldn't dream of drink/driving so I don't need cup holders, whereas the extra space will be fine and handy for my drugs stash

OF COURSE YOU DON'T DRINK in the car, but you do transport from the closest Starbucks to your destination

Not applicable; if it's anything like the last offering I experienced from Starbucks, it'll go down the drain
