I modeled and 3D printed a piece to fix my broken rear armrest drink holder.

It was not easy to replace. It seems to work about as well as the original. I'm actually surprised how strong the original feels after supergluing it back together. It's possible that would be a fix too.

Any chance you sell these? Mine broke as well and I'm considering replacing the whole tray, but I would buy this from you if you have any more.

I don't plan on selling any. There are many websites that will 3D print stuff for you for a reasonable price (under $10 is my guess), but you likely would need to drill out the holes with the #30 drill. I don't recall how precise that needs to be.

For those in hot climates that decide to do this: my first attempt used PLA filament, and the Texas heat caused it to deform when I left the drink holder open for an extended time. I used PETG for the second attempt and try not to leave the holder open for long periods while parked.
