Never use them. It does look pretty slid back though.

In BC it was 28c all day long on my patio on the weekend. We have a saying too: “How does the rest of Canada put up with such crappy weather??”

Guess I'll just keep mine in the box.

It is very very nice if you actually use an arm rest. I never have since the bulk of the time I have a coffee in the holder.

I love the armrest and highly recommend it, particularly when driving distances. I had the same armrest on my 2015 daily driver (70K+ miles).

I keep the armrest all the way forward, I pull out the cup holder. I have travel mugs that fit in the doors nicely and are easier to reach (more forward) than the cup holder locations. With the arm rest forward and the cup holder removed, a square kleenex box fits nicely behind the armrest and my sun glasses and any other stuff fit under the armrest.

HOWEVER, be advised that this armrest cannot take a lot of weight. I have broken the slider on 2 of these by leaning too hard on it. I found the solution was to reinforce the slider with a couple of aluminum straps, which I did immediately on my new Hakone.

Can anyone confirm the stitching color on these arm rests?

I have an 860 with orange stitching everywhere, I noticed the Hakone's have some orange stitched parts as well. Can't bring my self to buy silver stitched arm rests.

The stitching is black on the black and sort of tanish grey on the tan.

Interesting, may have to just bite the bullet and get the grey stitched one and dye the stitching black or something.

Thanks!

This part number is the Tan stitched arm rest.

Note that the armrest covers are interchangeable. They snap right off by reaching under the slider and pushing the plastic snap tabs.

The older FR-S armrest was black leather with red stitching. As you indicated, some special editions were black with orange stitching. The Hakone has two tone leather with gray/silver stitching. If you order an armrest from Toyota, I think you will get black with red. The stitching can always be dyed black to make the armrest color neutral.

Do you have a picture of what this looks like or is it basically the same as what TCoat posted?

No, it's the Scion RS 2.0 arm rest.

Only the stitching is tan/brown.

I believe it is discontinued though, so you'd have to find leftover stock.

Tcoat showed the Hakone edition armrest with Black and Tan LEATHER and grey stitching, not tan stitching. The part number referred to is for the Scion FR-S Release Series 2 armrest with black leather with brown (tan?) stitching. See: https://parts.toyota.com/p/Scion__FR...781813002.html
