Back cup holder

Post by bambi8980 »

Hey everyone- I got a question. I'm trying to replace my back cupholder on the center console. I found one for wayyyyyy cheaper, and the picture of it looks like it would fit mine perfectly. I've got a 2005 vibe, but the one that I'm trying to buy is a 2010 rear cupholder. Anyone know if it will work?

I don't think so. Just from looking at the exploded views from online parts sites the two pieces look similar but the attachment points look different. If no one else chimes in before then I'll see if I can get a picture of my 2009 one tonight.

Actually, it is the same exact part. The cup holder in my 10 GT was broken when i bought it, and since the one in my son's 06 looked to be the same, I tried it and it fit perfectly. Now the color might be off a bit, but it does fit.
I ended up getting one from another 10 model. What is wrong with it? Mine was missing the cover but the rest of it worked ok.

My kids tried to use the cupholder as a step and broke it clean off...where did you find a 2010 one cheap?
