proud new owner just a few questions

[bobbarley]

anyone know where I can find myself a nice centre arm rest console to match my grey/charcoal recaros? The cheapest one I can find is £130

look on Ebay for people selling 2nd hand ones - make sure they are genuine though - avoid the copies at all costs!

had a look all i could find were nasty leather ones

That doesn't include the fixing bracket or bolts.

Ah well spotted mr bob

Indeed, it does look a goodf armrest though.  you coudl either get that, and try to source the mounting bracket etc from VW.  Or hold out until you spot an auction for the entire package.

Never seen one working TBH. I did look at this few months ago

I quite like the look of something like that, but from what I can tell it involves having a big box on your dash.  That'd really annoy me.
