Broken Rear Seat (Center Console) Cup Holder

[cacarter126]

Hey guys, I'm new to the forum and wanted to say thank you in advance for any help or advice you can give.

I've got a 97' 4 Runner SR5 and the back seat cup holder that fold out of the center console was recently kicked by one of my friends and broke. I've got a few questions. Can it be fixed without replacing the whole console? If so what is the part number? Any leads on where I might find a fix?

Again, thanks for any help you can provide. I feel like this has to be something someone else has tackled because the thing seems fairly flimsy.

Look for people parting out 96-98 4runners in the classifieds.

Or go all out and upgrade to the 99-02 center console. Just make sure you get the metal bracket to make things easier if you decide to go that route. Google 3rd gen 4runner console upgrade and you should get some how to's

The piece that broke is the bottom plastic piece that actually holds the cups up, if I do find a parts truck, can just the cup holder be replaced?

It's the piece that functions as the door when the cup holder is closed, and folds down to be the base that holds the cup. I guess I'm asking if that whole fold down assembly can be replaced.
