What's the story on cubbies
So I was reading this thread about Garmin 350s and other after-market GPS units installed in empty cubbys...

There's even a link to a video of an after-market installation.

My empty cubby just pops open but doesn't slide back into the dash.
It looks like a baseball cap and affects the visibility of any screen/GPS I put in the cubby.
Anybody know - Can I buy this receding door cubby and put it in place of my current cubby??

So I called Courtesy and they can get the "lid cluster" for around $180 but the parts guy couldn't tell me if it would fit in my car. He said they couldn't guarantee it would fit.
Has anyone done this mod?
Mine is a 2004.5.

+1 to the info above, and here's a post I made in another thread.
Just FYI, the 03 cubby will be a dark grey color, while your dash is like dark charcoal or black.

Here's a summary:
2003:
Non-Nav: manual and retracts into dash
Nav: manual and retracts into dash
2004-2005:
Non-Nav: manual and flips up
Nav: powered and retracts into dash
2006-2007 (new dash style):
Non-Nav: manual and flips up
Nav: No nav cover at all*
*I believe some early 2006 models had powered and retractable covers like the 04 and 05 Nav models, but they discontinued them for some reason
