Actually from the side view it seems like a re-post of one I have seen on this forum already...

Still waiting...

Yeah it is like one being sold on here and definitely not TRD.

Looks pretty interesting to me. I have wondered if the Toyota GT 86 or the BRZ have a different insert.

Anyone know?

That Armrest is not TRD, not made by Toyota and not sold by Toyota. Its sold by a vendor here in the forum. @86_ZN6

here's the official ft86club seller, @86_ZN6's thread: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=23102

Trdsparks is just a vendor. No affiliation with TRD. I'm sure 86_ZN6 gave them authorization to sell their arm rest.

this armrest sucks. In order for you to use the armrest you have to sacrifice both cup holders.

Not true. You can position it so that it only takes one cup holder.

This armrest is not by TRD! Trd sparks is just an authorized seller of this armrest

I have this arm rest.
 
It is made of good quality, and looks like the rest of our interior, though I'll be honest, if you use only one cup holder, the arm rest wobbles about, you really have to use both cup holders which sucks. Even then its not terribly stable since it is an add on to a cup holder, that is an add on itself and not bolted down inside the center console (hmmm). Its only as stable as the cup holders.

You want an armrest and cupholders? What is this, a minivan? You lazy bastards ;)

Fail. You lose the storage capabilities of the center console compartment because the cup holder has to be in the compartment to be able to use the arm rest. I have one that has allowed me to completely remove my cupholders (which I don't use) and it also covers the entire storage compartment. It looks great. It allows me a lot of hidden storage for small stuff and lastly it is an efficient arm rest.
