Thanks for the info. I missed that thread. I like it a lot. I really hope @doggy decides to make the option without the cup holder, since I don't want cup holders in my car.

Latest Update on OEM Armrest.

The OEM armrest designed by Toyota Europe was supposed to be released this month. However, according to two dealers in Europe (UK and Germany) the introduction has been postponed with no new date given.

Yes. Of the two he's selling I bought the longer/larger one. I was wanting a cover to the cavity more than I was wanting an armrest and this one works perfectly. It looks good. It's well made. I'm very happy with it. The one shown on this thread was developed by Toyoto/Scion of Canada.

looks like that part number is starting to bring up more search results in google. hopefully just a matter of time... i'm more than willing to put a few holes in my center console for a quality piece... as long as it's not priced ridiculously of course
