Where to buy OEM center arm rest? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

qqzj · 04-14-2014, 07:36 PM

I am only aware of Nigel JDM, but the price is not exactly what I'd like to see. So question is where we can buy it cheaper? I am wondering how much it costs in Japan, and whether Toyota/Subaru will bring it to US market in the next year or two. I like it but do not want to pay the ridiculous price. $100 seems fair. Anyway, any suggestions would be great.

$200 is what you're paying. The cheapest I've seen is $195.

I see 225, with tax, it is pretty much $250. Should I get the tint done first or this arm rest, or the rear diffuser. Too many good things ...

Which is $187 in US Dollars... ^^^

To answer the one, I'd take tint over an arm rest. I usually rest my arm on the e-brake and it's comfortable enough.

I actually do not need it to rest my arm, just want something to cover the mess i have in the cup holder area. I could not believe the car won't provide a cover for it.

I understand that, I took that big book out of the glove box and just stick everything there. I rarely use that cup older area for that reason, but like you. I couldn't justify spending $200 for it.

I would definitely go with tint first.

Surprised there aren't any more group buys for this

The Toyota of Europe version has different part numbers for each.

Subaru might, but Scion had their own different USDM armrest that doesn't really cover anything but slides and is about the same cost.

You mean this one?

Thank God you mentioned. I have never heard of it before. This looks less attractive than the European one, but it is actually more functional. Overall, I slightly prefer this one. Also it does not involve drilling our cars, right?
