hey tnpartsguy, can you find this aveo part? (sunglass holder)

Post by jeffgtx »

i was on a biznass trip last week and i had an aveo rental (thats how i roll) and in place of the drivers side handrail above teh side window it had a sunglass holder thingy that was screwed into the handle bar holes. matched the interior so i know it was factory.what is it? i might like to replace my handle with this.

I'll look into it. Was it a 4 door or a 5 door?

I got one in, not sure if it will work or not, I'm going to try tomarrow, but it needs 4 holes to mount it; not sure I want to make anymore holes in my headliner.....let me see if I can find my extra oh-poop handle and try to match the holes up, if it's spaced right, I'll sell you this one cheap. EDIT/UPDATEIt's a bit off, maybe 1/4 inch or more from the OH-Poop handle. There's not much material to wider it to match the oh-poop holes that are in the car..... up to you if you want to try it, I'll even send you my damaged-but-oh-so-usefull to aid in measuring oh-poop handle.
