    I was tired of getting the back of my head smacked every time I went into this cubby on my 262. Got the parts from Cobalt for an R3/5/7 seat, and installed them. Was about $30 total. It took about 30 minutes to install, and all the parts are current Cobalt part #'s, so any replacement in the near future is easy. Seat Piston.jpg

    I have a couple in our ski locker that need to be replaced - I'm wondering if amazon would have them for less money ?

    Possibly. The piston its self was only $9.99 from my local Cobalt dealer. The 2 mounting brackets were about $10 each. My 262 did not have a piston set up at all until I installed this one.

    Let me look at the invoice. It should have the part numbers.

    The letters are not cheap. I paid the same for mine. I had to do 2 complete sets plus the logos when I had the sides redone on 2016.

    I haven’t found the invoice yet. I’ll see if my Cobalt dealer has it on file.

    Hope that helps.
