Sorry to change the subject slightly but does anyone know a good supplier of these armrests. I have been keeping an eye on e-bay and when they do appear it often says that you need special fixing kits for SEAT's or need to buy different brackets!Surely VW and SEATS are the same basic platform. This can oftne make the flea bay item as expensive as a SEAT part. Would it be possible to arrange a group buy etc?

Hi to you both

The arm rest i have in my car is from an A4, same as the a3 one and also vw golf.
yes the only difference is the base plate but these only if my memory serves me correct cost about £17 And a fiver for the bolts.
cheap as chips.
And if like me the colour doesnt match your interior go to one of those fabric warehouses, match up some cloth and retrim it, it took me 20mins tops.
hope this helps
 
Cheers guys! I had never thought about recovering one!:blink:

Looks like I may need to get an armrest sooner rather than later now! Work has just told me they are moving me from Belfast to Dungannon....80miles a day on the motorway :cry: [:@]
