Fitting Guide for Armrest

[hardyj]

Hi everyone,

I have done a few searches and got some pics but does anyone have anymore info or even a fitting guide for the centre armrest of a Leon? I have all the parts... just no guide.

Cheers,

Jay

Hey m8.

Not sure what armrest you have - but I fitted the Mk4 Golf one to my LCR and the proceedure was as follows: (sorry no longer have the instructions...)

• Remove 6 No. Screws that hold the centre console in place (2 in the footwell areas, 2 beside the front seats, and 2 under the rear ashtray,

• Unclip the gearstick gator (pull towards you and up),

• Disconect the fuel filler cap and ESP switches,

• Remove centre console,

• Cut the small rectangular tray out (infront of rear ashtray), and size to fit armrest,

• Bolt tripod bracket to car,

• Replace centre console... making sure not to get the ESP Switch and Filler cap switches mixed up (D'Oh!!),

• Replace all the centre console screws, and bolt armrest to the newly fitted bracket,

• Go for a drive and ask yourself how you ever did without the armrest before!

Obviously the above isn't as useful as diagrams and pics etc... but it really is that simple - the most difficult part is making the decision to cut into the centre console....

Have to add all the usual disclaimers.... not responible for any damage etc etc...

Hope you get it sorted!

Thomo.
