Thumbs up OEM armrest unboxing/review

Jpit - you da man! Too bad you got banned for that, but kudos on the hardwork and effort. You're a real trooper in the community.

I got home and had the armrest waiting for me! Now, a this moment is is too cold to install, but I will update with more installed pics tomorrow afternoon.

Amazing packaging on jpit's part. A+++


The PN in question


Package damage when delivered to jpit


OEM packing


Sexiness


Hardware


Notes: the nylon inserts have a brass insert for the torx screws. Very nice - I didn't expect this much.

The armrest itself does not have as much padding as expected. Still comfortable.

The stitching is the exact color of my cars stitching. I've seen concerns about this, and my unit is a perfect match.

Edit: it HAS to be torn apart to install. The padding does not allow it to open enough to screw I the two bolts on the passenger side



Will be updated with install pics soon!

I also received my armrest today thanks to Jpit. It is excellent quality and obviously a genuine Toyota part. As soon as it gets a little warmer, I will be installing it.

Thanks, Jpit!!!.

-Gary.

Everyone do me a favor and PM a mod, I pm'd Guff, and tell them that it's stupid Jpit was banned. He never even got a warning, he was just trying to help us all out. He's very disappointed that he helped us and got banned for it. So PM a mod and tell them to reinstate him. We would have not gotten all of these if it wasn't for him.

On a side note, I'm so excited to install mine!

Yea it did. And they didn't even tell him to stop before he got banned. It'd be one thing if he was shady about it and cheated us out of money. But a lot of us already got the armrest and he was great to work with.
