Whats your FRS armrest and how is it

I got the OEM armrest. Apparently no one ever gets them. I was the first one to order and have it installed at my dealership. They spent 3 hours installing that little crap because they've never done it before.

Review: Looks nice with having extra red stitching in your car, but the armrest feels plastic and hard. The reason I got it was for looks and to cover some valuables that I store in my trays. Not worth the $400 imo.

Got this one with the 86 logo, similiar finish to the stock interior.
It isn't bad, kind of just sits there.
A lot better then having nothing.

Ebay <$100 and from what I have heard about 15 minutes to install.
There are a few threads about them here someplace but too lazy to look. Everybody that got one really seemed to like it.

Do you have to screw in stuff or is it just a removable armrest?

You can get either. Some come with rails and some just insert.

Still love my Sutty armrest. Over a year of use and it still looks and feels like new.

This looks like mine. Got it for $40 used from a forum member over a year ago. Best $40 I've spent on this car
