That does not look like lapis. I think it is midnight blue and by the way it looks fantastic!

I have an '05 in that color with a natural interior, the dealer mentioned that the combination was one of two.

Thanks guys.

It's for sure lapis - pics make midnight and lapis look similar. Midnight is even darker than lapis.

I had a C2 cab in lapis a few years ago and it's the same. I'll double check the paint code.

Yep, Lapis Blue. I love the color. Good idea re: ordering two - I heard these need frequent replacement.
Jason...need two splitters myself - where did you get them and what cost please?

Order 2-3 of them cup splitter. If only 1 they will bend it to fit to box. I think I paid 165 or something from trg. Mike

NICE... I saw that one on E-Bay last week...

Also try gmg. I think they charge $175 + $15 for clips.

I would be guessing because they make/made the cup splitters in a ratio of 10 to every 1 normal splitter so likely just cheaper to manufacture.

someone else have a more logical suggestion?

Congratulations on the new car, I love mine more and more as I learn to handle it better - long road ahead and looking forward to every second of it. Oh, latest mod for the nut behind the wheel - picked up a new lightweight Sparco helmet - nice fit, very happy
