Hyundai Veloster Center Console
We source center console for every Veloster generation sold in South Africa, then check the fit against your VIN before it leaves the warehouse
What Are Hyundai Veloster Center Console?
The centre console houses the gear lever, handbrake, cupholders and armrest on your Hyundai — Getz, i20, Accent, Sonata and Creta all use a plastic-moulded assembly. The armrest clip on the lid is a well-known weak point, and it is the same moulding across several cars in the range, so a lid from a donor Accent or i30 of the right trim colour will usually solve it.
Signs You Need New Center Console
How we match center console to your Veloster
What changes across the range
Ordering center console for a Veloster starts with the generation: FS, then JS.
The asymmetric three-door layout means the left and right sides are genuinely not mirror images — door, glass and trim parts must be ordered by side.
Worth knowing: the Velostershares its Gamma GDi and T-GDi engines with the i30 and Elantra of the same era.
What we check on center console
- •The generation code, because Veloster parts lists split on it
- •The engine family — this Veloster was sold with Gamma 1.6 GDi and Gamma 1.6 T-GDi
- •The trim level, the interior colour, and whether the car has leather or cloth
- •Whether the car is pre- or post-facelift within its generation
In South Africa the Veloster is mostly a low-volume enthusiast car locally, so mechanical parts come easily through the shared Gamma engine family while body and trim need specialist sourcing. That is the wear pattern we stock and source against.
Veloster Center Console: Common Questions
Will center console from another Veloster fit mine?
Not automatically. The Veloster sold in South Africa as FS, then JS, and the asymmetric three-door layout means the left and right sides are genuinely not mirror images — door, glass and trim parts must be ordered by side. Send us the generation code off your VIN plate and we will confirm it either way before anything is dispatched.
Can you source center console for the Veloster if local stock is dry?
Usually, yes. The Veloster shares its Gamma GDi and T-GDi engines with the i30 and Elantra of the same era, which gives us a second catalogue to search when Hyundai-listed stock runs out. We will tell you what we are quoting rather than leaving you to guess.
How much does a Hyundai centre console cost?
Costs vary — a used Getz or i20 console from a strip yard is budget, while a full new Creta armrest assembly is significantly more. SA retail is limited for the specific part; we VIN-match and source through our supplier network and approved strippers. Send us your VIN for a quote.
Why does the armrest clip break on Hyundai centre consoles?
The plastic catch is undersized for the spring tension — a long-running owner complaint across the Sonata, i30 and Accent. Repeated opening flexes the clip until it snaps. Replacement armrest lids or aftermarket metal catches both solve it.
Can a Hyundai armrest be repaired without replacing the whole console?
Yes — in most cases. The armrest lid on Accent, Sonata and Creta is a separate moulded unit with its own hinge. You can swap just the lid, or even 3D-print the broken catch. The main console below rarely needs replacing.
Where can I buy a replacement Hyundai centre console armrest in South Africa?
We source armrest lids and full consoles nationally through our supplier network and SA strip yards. Accent, Sonata and Creta armrest lids are the most-requested items. Send your VIN, year and a photo of the damage for a same-day quote.
How much does a Hyundai centre console cost in South Africa?
It depends on model, condition (used vs new) and whether you need just the armrest lid or the complete assembly. SA-specific retail pricing for this part is thin, so we quote per-VIN through our supplier network. Ask for a free quote with your chassis number.
