Chris, i have a quick question about the denali cupholder. It can't really tell from the pic, but does the back of your denali cupholder stick just a hair out in the back and not perfectly flush? this is the problem i've had with mine, not sure if that is the case with all of them or not. Here is the back fitment im referring to. picture.jpg

It's minor, but it kinda annoys me, as i would like it to sit flush.

Not Chris but that is the same cupholder that comes on the Tahoe LTZ (different color woodgrain). Mine sits flush. Mine had the smaller door hinge broken when I got the vehicle. I poped it out to see if I could fix it before I had the dealer replace it. You can always pop it out and see if you can get it to fit better. Maybe something under it or some of the plastic has some slag from the mold. To get it out open the cupholder door partway and put your fingers on the lip behind the door and pull up with a quick jerk and it should release from the clips. You can also pry it too but more of a chance of damageing it.

Yea, i figured i'll have to end up trying to do some trimming. I pulled it out this past weekend when i removed the stealthbox under there that i sold. I was hopeing it wasn't sitting flush before because maybe the stealthbox was touching, but after i popped it back it it was still hitting. I see there is a little edge left in the back that i'll have to dremmel off this weekend and hope that fixes the problem.

Sorry guys been busy and out of town for the the last few week or so. I'll try to snap a pic tomorrow. The match is very good though, if not perfect.

I found this armrest cover on the net but it is normally only available as part of a kit with other pieces (I called). It is a 3D molded piece and a little different than the one Chris got. I asked Victor with Autowoods if he was able to get just this piece from his supplier. He was able to do so and told me he is considering offering it to his customers who buy wheels or spokes at a discount and maybe as a standalone at a retail price. I paid $56 including shipping but contact Victor at Autowoods.com for a price and availability. Victor is very responsive with Emails and works hard to keep his customers happy. He didn't have to do this for me. He ordered 3 so he probably has 2 left but can get more. It is also available with the Yukon wood grain color. I didn't buy a wheel but I did get the spokes a few weeks ago. The spokes are not an overlay but an OEM part finished in the matching woodgrain. I think they look great. I may decide to add the wheel at a later time.

I just got the console overlay and have not installed it yet since it is recommended to be at least 70 degrees for the 3M tape to stick well. I did dry fit it and it fits perfectly and is a 99% match to the OEM trim with only slightly more gloss that is very hard to notice. Click pictures for a larger image.
