I want an Arm Rest!

[scarface]

Where can i buy a central arm rest like the one in this pic:

Doesnt have to be that colour, just a standard one.

Also whats the part number and how much will it set me back?

dealers are about £130. ebay is between 25 and 50 depending on quality

flip! are they easy to fit though? ideally i want one with the red stitching like the rest of the interior, do you know if the seat one is like that?

As far as i know there is no red stitching option. To fit you need to remove the coin tray infront of the rear ashtray with a dremel and bolt it in there. There is a guide on here somewhere

They are available in black cloth or black leather

cheers just seen the guides, looks straightforward, although i didnt realise it would restrict access to the handbrake! may need to reconsider!

I have one was on the car when i got it, pain in the rear it is, hence it is always in the vertical position.

It doesn't that much.... I don't have mine in the 90 degree position, but the second (lower) position and handbrake access is fine.....

I had fitted one of these to my 2002 Seat Toledo which has the same setup as the Leon. It was a MK4 Golf one.

The armrest does kind of get in the way, but you get used to it, and then you think it's a really good design. You can change gear and pull on the handbrake without lifting your arm. Makes you really lazy
