I think it depends on what type of arm rest you have as to whether they are any good. The folding type that sit high up like in the Fabia, 1m leon, FIAT Stilo, Alfa Mito etc are pants (in my opinion) and get in the way. The arm rests that are level with the gear stick so your arm is straight are great, like the BMW rests and, it would seem, the genuine 1p leon rest.
I would like to get one, but 130+ is just a bit much for me at the moment.

I have this armrest, but its ended on e-bay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Black-Arm...=Car+Make:Seat|Model:Leon&hash=item2584bb30c1
And fitted after cutting height point down + screws
Its to high really and needs correction, but void to lifespan and weight bearing

just take your time whilst cutting i did it with a dremel and a 1mm wide cutting blade...
Bit of a thread resurrection, but has anyone looked at these:

They say they are for the 1m leon, but the shape seems closer to the 1p. They just don't look right for the 1m. I know they look grey and a little naf in the pictures, but if they are 50quid rather than 140, I might be interested.

The one for the 1p is : http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=360899231671&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:GB:1123
But I agree with you, the 1m one looks like it'll fit the 1p, infact it looks better than the 1p one as it curves for the handbrake, bit like the OEM one.

I have seen that one, but I reckon they might have labelled them the wrong way round! Even the screw holes seem to match up.
I have fitted this and put pictureslook several posts ago
Thought it looked familiar! I still think the seller may have listed the the wrong way round. I just cannot see how the 1m rest would actually fit in the old Leon!
I might bite the bullet and get one when funds permit. The one that is supposedly for th r 1m leon that is, not the one that has already been tried!

Not sure if anyone is still interested (I'm guessing not), but here is some proof that they have got them the wrong way round also further incentive to get the proper seat one

This one looks far too big for my liking! Seems better than other options but still looks too awkward.

The seat one is a better match with the fabric too , its a shame i want one but to me i can't justify the cost of the seat one guess i will have to do without, lol
Agreed with Jarre! I just bought the oem one and it's pretty good and easy to install great purchase!

I contacted the seller regarding this and they're still adamant that the 1p one is for the 1p and the 1m one is for the 1m. But again, as said in one of the previous posts, I cant justify spending £130 on an arm rest (especially as I've just spent £350 on an aftermarket stereo)
Jarre / jimbobcook i think £130 just for something to rest my elbow on is a bit steep , ive had cars 15 years ago that had them as standard , i miss the arm rest but i don't know if i £130 miss it .
Are you still going to Wetherby jarre i might have a go with yours and see what i think

Bit the bullet....got a brand new armrest for £122 incl vat. Pick it up from the local stoneacre dealer tomorrow.
Might be worth taking a look here if anyone still wants one https://www.caraccessoriesplus.co.uk/product/seat-leon-armrest.html
I rang up and bought over the phone though, easier than registering through the web!

So, digging this one up.. again.
Has anyone tried this one?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mittelarmle...fits=Make:Seat|Model:Leon&hash=item5adedcbcfa
Not really liking the screws at the back, but perhaps it could be screwed in from the top, instead of from the back?
Thanks!
