Citigo Armrest Guide

[maxychat]

I purchased the genuine armrest from the Skoda dealer for £139 which is cheaper than anywhere else I could find. 

 

I thought I'd put the installation instructions on here in case anyone else was thinking about fitting it.  It took me 2 hours to fit taking my time, I used a boring tool instead of a drill and I didn't torque the screws to 1.5Nm (not sure how I would do that!)  but someone more competent than me could do it in 1 hour or less.  I'd even say anyone could do it.  By far the most difficult part was #25, it's incredibly fiddly and took 10 minutes to get each screw into the hole, but that may just be my incompetence.

 

It's definitely a huge quality of life improvement, I don't think I could go back to driving without it.  Only negative aspect perhaps is that it is pretty slim, cant really be shared with a passenger

What! And lose the wine bottle holder? I'll give that a miss

Haha!  You could always fill this one with a few Whisky Miniatures or a few cans of Gin and Tonic... 😄

 

I've always wanted once of those armrests with an inbuilt fridge, now that would be perfect for a bottle of white

Always good to share guides etc, hope you don't mind but I've flagged it and asked a mod to move it to the Citigo guides where it is best placed  if you can amend the original post, maybe put guide in the title so future Citigoers can find it

Topic moved and title amended.
