Pics of new armrest accessory in development.
 

Hey everybody, I'm lucky enough to be field testing this new accessory armrest. I'm interested to hear your thoughts and feedback, but please keep in mind that at this point I can't say anything about pricing or availability.

Features
-It doesn't interfere with the cupholder in the armrest (unless you've got a cup in them).
-It is setup at the same height as the armrest on the door, which is a nice feature.
-Soft black leather with red stitching that is a dead match for the rest of the red stitching used throughout the interior.
-Nicely padded
-Excellent fit and finish
-Button lock/release mechanism

Until this piece was installed, I never knew that I was missing having an armrest!

Here are some pics:

I'd totally be down for that! Looks really nice.

I'll take one. Preorders?? I don't care about price.

It should attach with strong magnets so you can pop it off and toss it in the back seat when you have drinks in the cup holders.

In the pic where it is open, you can see two little stoppers that hold it open. I haven't had any issues with the lid closing going around a corner with drinks in there.

Looks Great! I'd be interested as well!

Looks nice! Does it open smoothly like a nice heavy german product or is it that cheap plasticy feel where it flings open and feels like's gonna break if you open and close it too many times.

Does it stay open when you're driving around... in case we decide to have a big gulp in there hehe

Looks good to me!

Yeah. I'd like to be informed when they become available.








Never argue with an idiot. They'll bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience!

Hahaha that's awesome. Maybe I need to add that bit to my sig.

Very nice match of the interior. Now add a collapsible cup holder near the glove box by the shifter and all will be well.

I agree with the statement that it should be held on with magnets. not b/c it will interfer with drinks but having it open will interfer with the lady friends arm and her wanting to put it on the console.

That looks great!!!!

I am guessing this is aftermarket and not OEM?

how about and 86 logo embroidered on it?

Are they taking suggestions? I feel like it needs more... how do I say it... texture isn't necessarily the word I'm looking for. I just feel that the top is too flat and the edges too rounded. Like obviously the top surface needs to be flat for your arm, but I feel like it looks like a big pancake. What if they made edges sharper? I dunno how to describe it, exactly.
