GT Console

[Michael F. Levanduski]

I just replaced my "Export" stinger GT console [open cup holder] with the Korean console [cup holder retractable cover]. I noticed that you might be able to just swap out the cup holders and save a few bucks. Checked with the dealer parts supplier. Looking at the console - both cup holders are a sub-assembly, that are removable.

Note that in the interior pictures on the Kia USA web site, they show the covered version...

Bait and switch!!!!

Negative. The "export' version has the cup holder openings moulded on the console itself, whereas the Korean version has a rectangular whole that fits the lid and cup holders

I was just looking after your post and ask "where" as all I could find was US version. And then.... oops!!
