FT86 Arm Rest
 
Anyone know if this arm rest is any good?

Can you define 'good'? I haven't heard of this one before, but it just looks to be a pillow-like insert that doesn't allow you access to the cup holder unless you remove it. On the plus side however, it is quite cheap.

not expecting much for $35.... i just noticed one review on the site;

"Good for the price it's kind of s Universal piece although it does fit well. It is just a piece of foam with a cover on it and some elastic straps underneath to attach to cup holder but for the price it does the job"

If you end up buying it, please review it for the rest of us.

For only 20 bucks I'd give it a shot

I got one from the same eBay vendor, 4 weeks to get it from Korea. Pics here: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showt...=30324&page=21

It's a bit too narrow and after having it for 2 months it's moving from side to side due to the fact that only one of the elastic bands can go under the cup holder and the band is losing some of its elasticity. Going to try some 3M mounting tape under the sides to keep it from moving.

For $20. shipped it's barely worth it.

Edit: I had a piece of velcro tape so I gave that a try instead of the 3M tape. Working out ok for now. The arm rest doesn't move and can easily be removed.

Elastic band around cup holder is starting to get stretched. You can turn it around and use the other elastic band.

Got it. For $20 you can't go wrong with this for a simple cheap solution that matches the interior and feels comfortable. No complaints
