anyone retro fitted a front armrest?

if so cost, complexity and did you get the rear vents working too?

182_blue:
costs about £190 for the kit, its fairly easy to do but the rear vents can be a pain

i've heard people say dealers can cost upto £1k!!!

i'll have to look at the links when i get home ;-)

isn't a whole centre console/tunnel required though etc.?

are the rear vents quite functional from standard fit?

182_blue:
the ebay link gives you all the parts, although if you want air to go to the back you need to pay the extra £7.50 for the duct, im not sure how functional the rears are as i have never sat in the back

he even gives you instructions for fitting (minus the ducting fitting guide)

I was going to ask what happens if you have a centre mount disc changer as the images in the PDF show just a large storage bin but looking at the image on the eBay listing which is clearly different as it has single DIN slot, it would appear that there are two versions, one of which accomodates a disc changer - is this correct? Persumably this is denoted by part numbers?
