Title: Fitting An Armrest?
Post by: bigalmckenzie on April 16, 2013, 12:48:41 pm
Hi,

Could anyone tell me what's involved in fitting an armrest to a car currently without one?

I would want the rear vents connected, an empty area under the armrest, or maybe a connector for my Android phone (not I-Phone). and the sliding cover just ahead of it.  Car has a leather interior so would need to be leather too.

Could anyone advise what I'd need, where I'd get the parts, who could do it and how much it might cost?

Thanks.

would be happy to  :laugh:

i happen to have an armrest for sale with eveything that you need (for sale section) :innocent: including both pipes- apart from a leather top that is. however i do know a seller in Germany sells new  leather lids  [ebay]221217697487[/ebay] - as to the VW dealers of course. so you could always just unclip the cloth lid and put a leather one on instead.
