Default Center Console/Cup Holders.

Is there anyway to switch out the cheaper looking glovebox style fold down cupholders to the nicer floorboard style ones?

My 06 3500 has the floorboard style but it has the g56 so it comes with the floor cupholders around it.

Just wondering if it was just a matter and buying the parts and switching them out and would bolt right up or what?

Thanks


The style most are.

Upgraded Floor Style ( I realize this picture shows the transfer case shifter on the floor, but I couldnt find a good picture of just the floor style on the upgraded 4x4 on the dash system. But you get the idea.)

I'd be interested in this as well. Not a fan of the fold down as it is down all the time anyway, lol. Keep in touch!

Also, for other alternatives I saw a few of these cupholder/cubby units at Pepboys/Autozone. You may want to check there too if you run out of options.

Yeah ending up finding all the part numbers, diagrams, etc and its really just buy the parts and install it all.

I have all the info over on ********* and can move it over here if anyone is interested. It is worlds better than the flip down thats for sure. Why dodge didn't do something nicer than that on the slt 1500's is beyond me.
