How much have people paid for the armrest?

Seat website says £100

But i asked at the dealer last night and they said £85 + TAX = £122

Was the dealer wrong?
 
Assume that included fitting (£85 +TAX is £100)

I'm getting one shortly - it's a must as left arm doesn't do anything on motorways coz it just pulls forever in 6th......

so the dealer was tyrying to pull a fast one!
 
Think they might be mate i'm picking mine up 2moro and its £100 straight up

Interesting!

Does your £100 include fitting? Or do you plan to fit it yourself?

Now the questions is do i name and shame the dealer you the users of this forum!????????
 
My dealer fitted mine for £100 all in, fitted and custom adapted for the AUX input!! The AUX input gets blocked by the armrest, however Jennings adapted this so I can plug my ipod in and can store the ipod actually in the armrest, no extra cost, get it done, looks the part and is very practical.
 
can you post some pics of this &.
jennings get a good write up but never seen any pics of their work.and there seems to be plent of it.
 
Is the armrest available without red on it? I would get it if it was all dark grey. Anyone have any pictures of one installed?

there is now a modified armrest that allows you to use the aux in
 
Fitted it myself took 2 minutes its 5 screws instructions say to use a drill but a sharp centre punch goes through the plastic easy enough. the Aux in now sits inside the armrest so no messy wires when i plug my walkman phone i'll post a few pics 2moro.

Hi Yello,

I am intrigued by your 'no wires lying around' comment, do you have the standard armrest (1P1061000) or the new one designed for use with the aux jack (1P1061000A)??? I assumed the new armrest would just leave a little extra space to plug the ipod in (on the outside) of the armrest.

I'd love to know which one you have fitted and hopefully some pics!
 
what colours do the new leon armrests come in? and does anyone know if they can be fitted in the Leon Cupra (04 plate)???
 
You must register to see that link and I do not know French enough to do it :confused:
