Perfect match to the interior. I used 2 layers of 3M automotive adhesive tape. So far it's been on about 5 weeks and it hasn't moved.

Source for the armrest? Looks like the EU one but actually opens to the driver side not the passenger side. :P

It's the Gt86 LHD armrest on Fteightysix.com. The latch is on the drivers side. I don't get many passengers...!

Ah 3m. Duh. Why didn't I think of that. Only thing is I don't have $200 for this))))):

Yea I'd rather just put my hand on my ebrake than pay $250 or w/e for this. But that's just meeeee. Enjoy it man!

Looks good. I'm going to get one of these soon. Trying tape first instead of drilling seems like a smart idea.

Did you apply one layer of tape to the console and one to the arm rest and then press into place?

I just received my armrest in the mail yesterday so I'm very interested in more details on how you did this :)

Sounds like instead of drilling he just used tape like this:

Right, I understood that part. I'm curious how exactly the tape was used. You know, more details? More details would be great. :D

I'm betting instead of drilling through those holes into the base, he just put a couple layers of tape underneath the whole thing.

For those random parts you can't wait 2 days from Amazon to ship at a premium, O'reily and Autozone are your best friends :D
