    Cupholders worth anything?

    Went to the junkyard and to get some odd parts and noticed a SE-i and pulled the cupholders and and also it had a armrest that needs alittle work and a color change also pulled a foglight switch since I havent seen one before lol

    I installed the cupholders and now Im really not sure If I want them now, so would they be worth being put up on ebay or something?

    35-50 shipped is what I ask for them. If the springs are all in tact, no cracks, no dried on nastiness and the plastic is in good shape then the 50 range is easily achieved.

    Dude, keep them. Definitely rare and worth it. I took Mikes (^) and I'll never regret it.

    Take pictures of the fog lights! If they're the big, square OEM ones, I'll take 'em!

    If the car had the fog light switch and cup holders, then it probably has some other goodies as well. Rip off the driver's door panel and get the white window relay. If the car still has the front grill, grab it and I'll buy it from you for something. If you're ambitious get the rear brake setup and the brake proportioning valve from up front. Eventually someone will take that off your hands for $150 or so.

    I could take alook but im not that great at taking apart/fixing things but there are like 3 junkyards within 15mins of me and the nearest one has atleast 10 different 3rd gens.(only one had cupholders/not sure on armrests)

    so if anyone needs anything I could take a look around.

    the car I grabbed the cupholders also had a steering wheel with radio controls on it but not radio=(

    If there is a coupe, look for a high mount tail light seal, as well as fog lights from any body style!

    Re: Cupholders worth anything?

    Slight thread hijack: Does anyone have any pictures of the cupholders "in action"? I've seen a couple of pics showing the cupholders stored away, but never pulled out.

    Also, can these be used in all trim levels as a direct install with no modifying?

    Time to learn. Grab some tools and go to junk yard school. You'll never get better if you don't try, and what better place to try but there?

    Yes: All you need is the front part of the center console with the hole that holds everything (i.e., not the DX one that just goes down to the carpet).
