Retrofitting Armrest

[dcduarte]

Hi all,

I have a Leon mk4 that does not have an arm rest.
Is it possible to retrofit with the original armrest?
All third party ones I’ve seen don’t really look good

How does it look? It's just the bin and it's missing the armrest only? It is it an empty space in that part of the center console? Can you share a pic?

Yeah, it's an empty space with a 12V socket. I've attached pics

Well at least you still got the same, uselessly small, cupholders as everyone else. You are also missing the rear USB sockets, passenger air vents and their electronic temperature controls, which are all in the rear of the armrest, so likely to be missing all the wiring and ducting for these.

If there’s a good thing about having the missing armrest is that at least I have a place for bottles

Hi all
Does anyone know of any solution? I went directly to Seat, and they told me that to install the armrest, it would be necessary to replace the entire console. In other words, it's not possible to just add the armrest.
