Ebay armrest cover.

Recommended Posts

I am just wondering if anybody has bought anything like this from ebay or not.

>>Clicky<<

I have an armrest setup on the way from Brent and i was originally going to get it reupholstered in leather because its currently cloth and needs doing anyway. Then i seen this on eBay and thought hmmmm.

Cost all up including postage was $34 NZD so i thought its at least a go, if it turns out crap quality then i have not lost a whole heap but if it turns out to be fine then its not bad value i reckon.

I got mine from that guy off eBay. Very quick postage and customer service. About 3 or 4 days after I won the auction I was going to email him to ask if he had sent it and it turned up that morning. I was extremely impressed.

I got the suede version with the M stitching, and the fit is perfect. I got Retro Vehicle enhancements to swap the covers over. Only cost $30.

Hmm was just looking at this and the question popped up, how do you attach this armrest?

Would you have to drill holes in the centre console for it to fit?

I was looking on Ebay on full consoles and realized that the handbreak hole is on the wrong side!

I am pretty sure the whole center console needs to be replaced, The one i am getting off of Brent is the complete center console unit. The end where the armrest is looks completly different to the one in my car, But with my current standard one off if you look under the carpet the holes are already there for the armrest version. Brent has another center unit from what i understand, Shoot him a pm i am sure he would be able to hook you up.

I recieved the cover the other day, Took way less time than i thought as i mentioned in another thread.

Took it to a place this morning and the guy put it on for free for me, What a legend and a bloody good bloke.

Took old center unit out cut carpet away where i needed to so everything would fit and about an hour later and a couple of trips to get some proper bolts etc its all done. Following are some pics. First is it covered followed by center console removed and main bracket put in place, then a pic of it all installed from the back and finally the whole thing. Yippee now i have somewhere to rest my arm.

Thanks to Brent for doing me a decent price on the whole unit and sorting out where it went to when the friken couriers tried to do a number on me.
