Look it up in the OEM Parts Index on the right hand menu list. I also purchased the cushion set (cooler top and rod holder backs) from Specialty Marine. I did remove the original chocks and moved them toward the bow about an inch so the new cooler would fit better against the console. I also had to move the original snaps on the rod holder to line up with the new cushions snaps, it was quite easy.
