Putting a feeler out there if anyone may be interested in trying to get a group buy going on the Mark2+ Armrest at Leatherz.com. List is $130. It's a simple bracket set up to our existing center console. Out of curiosity, I emailed Andy @ leatherz.com yesterday and he said he'd look into it. Regardless of what Andy is able to offer, if you haven't looked at their products you should check them out since some of our interior parts are interchangeable with the Z3. http://www.leatherz.com | | | 12-30-2006, 12:50 AM | #2 | TRETEN IRGENDEINES ESELS Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Rhode Island Posts: 3,687 | I already have one in my car. I've had it for 2 yrs now and it's a great armrest. __________________ 98 Avus Blue 318 ti Active clear outs all around,stealth turning signals,blue led interior lights, 35% tinted windows,K&N air filter, 12" Kenwood Sub, MTX Thunder Amp,Alpine cd changer, Leatherz Armrest,ACS Pedals/Handbrake/FloorMats & Vitesse Tuning Carbon Fiber B-Pillars/CF Spark Plug Cover, New 16" MSW Typer 14 Rims on Goodyear Triple Treds www.myspace.com/avusblueti | | | 01-02-2007, 06:08 PM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2005 Location: Hinsdale, IL.

Takes about 10 minutes to install.

Looked into it initially when I got my car. Called and spoke with someone @ LeatherZ back then. My recollection is poor. However, I think I remember them saying that there are no refunds if you are not happy with it. | | | 01-01-2007, 01:37 AM | #7 | Member Join Date: Dec 2005 Location: Washington DC, Pittsburgh PA Posts: 81 | if you're looking for a cheap boot bundle, check out redlinegoods.com! $60 for a combo, and they have a wide variety of options. | | | 01-01-2007, 07:41 PM | #8 | TRETEN IRGENDEINES ESELS Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Rhode Island Posts: 3,687 | __________________ 98 Avus Blue 318 ti Active clear outs all around,stealth turning signals,blue led interior lights, 35% tinted windows,K&N air filter, 12" Kenwood Sub, MTX Thunder Amp,Alpine cd changer, Leatherz Armrest,ACS Pedals/Handbrake/FloorMats & Vitesse Tuning Carbon Fiber B-Pillars/CF Spark Plug Cover, New 16" MSW Typer 14 Rims on Goodyear Triple Treds www.myspace.com/avusblueti | | | 01-02-2007, 04:53 PM | #9 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2006 Location: dorchester Posts: 700 | i'll try an take an post a pic of mine..its longer than the one above...its the oem factory fit one.....so i expect most of u will know what it looks like anyway!! | | | 01-03-2007, 03:09 AM | #10 | Member Join Date: Jun 2005 Location: florida Posts: 30 | That is a great site and I need to check with my mate but if she wants it I am in. | | | 01-03-2007, 05:17 AM | #11 | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2004 Location: atlanta Posts: 145 | That's sort of what I thought as well. I figured it would be about 50/50 on those who'd rather go w/OEM versus the bolt on. I haven't heard back from Andy at Leatherz, so I'll close out the idea of a potential group buy for the time being. Not to leave you hanging, I've done some checking and dependent on the dismantler, it can actually be cheaper (depending on the condition) to buy a used OEM and use a leather restoration kit if the armrest is showing some wear. There's supposedly a very good leather restoration kit made by Leatherique that I've been hankering to test out, so this may be a good project for it (since I won't have to be stuck with it in the car if the results aren't impressive). | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
