Default Rear Cup Holder Stuck - Disassembly advice?

One of my rear cup holders is stuck; it looks like someone pushed it too hard. Does anyone know how to remove that assembly?

Default it is possible to fix... best to remove the rear seat bench for easier access to the

cupholders. With a screwdriver you can pry off the outer plastic trim piece surrounding the cup holder. With this off, you can then access the slots over each cup holder, maybe 1/2" wide, where you press with a screwdriver to release the tabs that hold the cupholders in.

Good Luck!
