welshy_maverick Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 I have a 2013 Fiesta ST but im sure this applies to any of the fiesta mk7 facelift models. Mine has a small "armrest" fitted as standard but is no where near long enough to be usable as a real armrest. I was wondering is there a replacement armrest "lid" that I could just remove the existing lid and fit a longer one? I know getting to the handbrake would be a bit of a challenge but I would love a proper armrest for the longer motorway cruises. Any Ideas?

Ollies122 Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Also can't be difficult to take the top piece off and create a track like thing, like with some armrest slide forward to adjust to arm lengths Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AleXander Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Any news on that? This looks sooo sexy: http://www.european-parts.net/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/957but it cannot be fitted to a car that alredy have armrest.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveTheDog Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Need to find a solution for this, the armrest is too far back for me and in a Titanium X it should also be padded and covered in leather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
