Vrs armrest

[pulse]

Mk4 golf armrest retrimmed with a fabia vrs seat cover. Very good condition, latch works fine etc. Comes with lower bracket too. Fits mk1 fabias and I THINK octavias?

What does this connect to? Do you take out the plastic trim behind the hand brake and replace it with the bracket for the arm rest?

For the fabias it goes where the cupholder is behind the handbrake. You either just fix it in with screws through the plastic, or weld some bolts in place to use the actual bracket. Read somewhere about being able to use a bolt already in place by the handbrake to secure the bracket also.

Thanks I will have a read.

What damage is there permanently, should I wish to take it out in the future, just two holes where I've drilled into the centre trim?

Does the 'lower bracket' cleanly fit here:

I am at a bit of a loss as to where it actually secures/fits to.

It doesn't have anything to do with the rear ashtray bit, although I think someone knocked up their own bracket to mount theirs in that position once.

The quickest and easiest way is to remove the lower bracket from the armrest (as the bracket is to fit in the golf), then slot the actual armrest into the rectangular section of the cupholder, then screw through from under the centre console, and from the back where you remove the ashtray.

But yeah, if you was to remove it then there'd just be a couple holes where the screws were.

I see

That makes sense, thanks I have a better understanding of how it fits now.

I shall keep my eye out when you next have one for sale.

Do you always finish them in black cloth or do you ever finish them in black leather (I have leather seats) ?

Thanks in advance.

Just cloth up til now as they're from the actual fabia vrs seats. I did message a few places to see if they could embroider the logo onto some leather, but had no replies.
