The picture of the kamei one shows the Milotec armrest. The leather version is cheaper from Butt's.

How about a genuine Skoda one? :confused:

Doesn't the armrest make using the handbrake a real pain? I know it does on the Octy 1

If you can lift it slightly. It should be OK

I find it's not so much the handbrake, as you can loop your arm round the armrest and yank it. It's the seat belt which is a pain because the armrest storage box is exactly where you need your hand to be to do up the buckle. My armrest spends a lot of its life swung up out of the way, and really only gets used when cruising.

Looks like its more trouble than its worth !!

No problem with the handbrake here either. I find you can just bend your hand under the armrest and apply it. No problems with the seat belt either.

My armrest spends all it's time 1 click from as low as it can go (slightly below horizontal). I find this way, you arm rests on the armrest (funnily enough!!) and your hand is at the correct level for the gear lever.

I love mine!!
