European Console Parts??

Has anyone done a conversion to the Euro console wood cover? I love the design of the M/GL interior EXCEPT for those hulking holes that are the cupholders...i know the euro models have covers over this area...has anyone converted/looked into cost?

I like that euro style too.
They wasted lot of space for the big cup holders in US version.... Those should be converted just like in 06 Sonata.

I've seen those threads and I just looked at them again.

They haven't seem to be able to get the parts.

Can't see why it should be such a problem to get a different console cover???
