Unhappy center console broke off

The part of the center console that slides over the cup holders in 05 has come off. I put it back on but it doesnt stay on now. Any ideas, I am taking it to the dealership tomorrow but if I can get it to stay on I wont need to go.

Mine broke in two places. Still functional, so I haven't worried about it too much. Funny EVERY SINGLE person has a broken one though....

Mine was broke before I even bought it
Had them replace it before I took delivery.

Seriously, those things are garbage. I think out of all the RX-8 owners I've met, MAYBE two have had latches that still work. The most enraging thing is how the button screws up and tilts to the side. Ugh...
