Default Bugaboo accessories compatible with other strollers?

So I got a ridiculous steal on the Bee right before the baby was born, and I love using it as my car stroller. I also have a Teutonia T150 I use for around the neighborhood. Now that the weather is getting cold here in Chicago I'm starting to wonder about accessories for both strollers that I could possibly use interchangeably. Has anyone tried using their Bug Bee or Frog footmuffs on other strollers, or even using their Bee or Frog footmuffs interchangeably with one another? I still have two Urban Bundle Me footmuffs I used with my MBUD for my twins, but when I tried one out on my Bee it just didn't look as cool as the Bugaboo one I've seen around.

And how about the Bug cupholder? I think I've read about other moms here using it on other strollers but I would hate to buy it and find out that it's useless on anything other than a Bugaboo.

Any thoughts?

I've used the footmuff from our Frog on a Mac Triumph and P&T Vibe (on the second seat) and it worked just fine, although I prefer the toddler Bundle Me because it has a little more leg room. I think that since there are the proper slots for a 5 point harness it should be okay on other strollers. I'm not sure about the cup holder because at the time we used a Valco one for the Frog. HTH!

I've made my Bugaboo footmuffs fit on my Mutsy, but it isn't perfect. I also found it to be a bother to be switching such a big accessory between strollers. I have one Bug cupholder which I swap between my Cam and my Bee+, and the universal board, too. But I've also discovered that, with the universal board connectors in place on the Cam, my Mutsy Step-up board fits perfectly. (Even better than it fits the UR.)

I don't know about the cupholder. It comes with 4 connector pieces - 2 each for the Frog/Cam and the Bee - to fit different parts of the chassis. If one of those worked, then some of the other accessories (like the parasol) could be used, too, since they use the same attachment system.

I drive a Bugaboo Cameleon, a Bugaboo Bee+ (2010) and a Mutsy Urban Rider. Ooops, and a Chariot CX2, too! Oh, and a purple Starck Maclaren And oh, wait, I have *another* Bee+ (2011). How did I get six strollers?? Uh-oh, there's a P&T Dash in my living room - who put that there?

Thanks Ladies! I think I may go ahead and just get one Bug footmuff for now and see if I can make it work switching back and forth. I found a Frog footmuff on sale for 50%, it just sounds like too good of a deal to pass up.
