Or here, in the for sale and want to buy forum.

That's a problematic little piece, no matter how you look at it.

Or your local dealer. They should be able to get any all little parts for you.

It's expensive for what it is. If you didn't have it, I'd ask the dealer for it. Here you go:

You might try one of the used parts vendors here on the forum also to see what price they may have.

I totally agree with owc6. That little piece sucks. It flops around and you can't count on it to hold your drink. I just did the Toyota Camry Cupholder mod and it works great. If you can dremel, this is what I recommend.

Here's mine (you can't see it, but I used a little velcro to make it extra secure):


Got the idea from this thread: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...lder-mods.html

Its "only" $44 plus tax and shipping at another supplier. Still overpriced for a dab of molded plastic. This should be a $10-20 part.

I think GM prices stuff higher the more likely they think it will get lost or damaged and need replacing.

When you get one modify as I have done or the insert is not secure and holder is shallow.

First remove ~3/32 inch thick rubber cover from bottom of recess. It just pulls up.

Then use UV activated adhesive to make a fillet from the Insert to the bottom.

I added some felt pads on the sides to hold a water bottle snug. It holds in 1 "g" turns and 1++ "g" stops.

Dealer should easily be able to order, or one of the sources mentioned here by others.

However, if the car was delivered without it, GM should buy it for you. Ask your selling dealer.

Right. If the car was delivered new without the part, GM owes it to you.

Or lunch for two, without alcohol or tip, at a low to mid grade joint in Hawaii.

Right, especially check inside the cubby in rear left of the cargo compartment. Mine was full of all kinds of stuff.
