I'm sure some people don't want to drill, but some people prefer OEM over aftermarket. These two sets don't completely overlap however. Do you have proof that the same people who complained about drilling are the same ones who are now saying they want the JDM armrest instead of the Suly armrest? I would be more certain of your data sets before painting "EVERYONE" (which includes yourself, by the way) as pathetic. The only pathetic one I see here is the OP for making a troll post. |

I went with the Carsmo arm rest haha. You are right, not "everyone" was upset with it. I spoke in a absolute, which was wrong.

OP is just bitter that he spent x amount of money buying a fatter uglier ghetto-er armrest while others got a cleaner looking OEM one. I don't see what's wrong with drilling holes for something that's a permanent fixture.
I don't have an armrest at the moment. I like the clean look of the OEM but it's not practical for me because i always have a bottle of drink in the cupholder. I'm waiting for @doggy's armrest when he's gonna make one. |

And, personally, I don't think yours looks good at all, at least not aesthetically. As for functionality, does it even open? |

Overall quality on the OEM one far outshines Sutty's, especially at the rear of the armrest. With that in mind though, I'm still not a big fan of the arm rests that have hinges. Not because of the drilling part, but I just find its awkward when you do have drinks in the cup holder, you need to leave the arm rest in its open position. It's especially weird when you have a passenger as you've effectively created a wall next to him/her. I'd still rather have one that you can just remove entirely when necessary to keep it looking clean throughout.

For the record, the drilling never really bothered me. I was one of those who would've preferred having it hinged at the rear. Barring that - I'm good with the OEM one.
The other one kind of looks like the girl who wears tight clothes but shouldn't - but hey, someone's gotta take her home right? |
