jma78b Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 I actually like having the excessive amount of drinks holders in my car I hope you will be happy with the arm rest. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any thoughts???Linky Link Link this one's a helluva lot cheaper...http://www.carstyle-bits.com/new_catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=107&products_id=567 seems a pretty good idea, thinking about getting one too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexB Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Fezza T - on that page: "Base adapter kit for Armster armrest (main Armster body not included). Ideal to swap your Armster over to a different vehicle without the additional expense of purchasing the full product again." That's just the base adapter for an armrest which isn't included :( I've been thinking about getting one of these for a while as well but can't decide which one. There's one at european-parts as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TitaniumSteve Posted September 5, 2009 Author Share Posted September 5, 2009 There's one at european-parts as well. I know I have looked at that one but it cost a little more plus the postage for the Euro one is really expensive. Plus the pics of the one I linked to show it fitted to a Mk7 with same colour interor as mine so at least I know it suits ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dav Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 these are pretty good like but a bit expensive imo, i think they would be a lot better value for money if they where around £30 (yes i'm a tight offshore oil rig worker where every pound £££ is a prisoner) :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexB Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 not only about looks, it'd be comfy (I have got used to an armrest from my 58 plate Mondeo Titanium company car =p) and the Fiesta's really don't have anywhere to put anything except the cup holders or the huge door pockets which things slide around in lol.

NathanS Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 In order to have the complete armrest it looks like you need the adapter:- http://www.carstyle-bits.com/new_catalog/i...products_id=567 And then the armrest itself that seems to clamp on:- http://www.carstyle-bits.com/new_catalog/i...products_id=502 Doesn't look too bad imo, £104 total outlay.

Air Hostess Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I thought we had this conversation some months back.about you cant get to the handbrake properly with out twisting your wrist through at least 720 degrees,although it would be nice to rest your arm on something (which I miss from my Mondeo) but i think trying to do a hill start when you do not have compleat control of the "bite" from the hand brake seems a little on the unsafe side,but hey what do I know Ime just a Blonde......
