    Default The Beast Gets an Armrest

    So some of you know that esse esse (me) has been after an armrest. Guess what I got one thanks to grundleweed of FF (topman).

    I had to make a few but minor adjust ments but am pleased with the result I took some pics to let you see it.

    Attachment 323 I love the armrest and I know it's blue but will sort that

    Attachment 324 More storage yey

    Attachment 325 See Ipod fit nicely in there

    Attachment 326 Made some mods to the armrest to get desired finish. Used bolts instead of torx screws. Dan that's the slot I've been talking about just need to get the cover covers the metal bit (Hint Hint Dant)

    Attachment 327 and fits perfectly

    Attachment 328 see

    Attachment 329 which colour fabric to have it done in it will cost £20

    Attachment 330 and Dan this is the piece you'll need to cover your hole.

    All comments welcome

    So after some deliberations mainly with myself I went to an ex Rolls Royce uphosterer Alistair Creig Welcome to the Alistair Greig Upholstery Website - Home page to re-upholster my armrest lid for £20.

    Here is the finished product and I hope you like it

    Attachment 341The man did a sterling job IMO

    Attachment 342

    Attachment 343

    I decided to go with black leather to keep in tune with rest of the center console , leather gaitors and the pastics.
