I installed my armrest as my very first upgrade. I looked around and decided the best option was to buy a new one from the dealer. It was the smartest move, considering the other options. Be careful about using non ti model E36 armrests. I've heard they are not a perfect fit. Also, the small square area in the front of the tray is not on other E36 model armrests. Here are pictures of the one I bought from the dealer, it is made for our cars. Quote: Originally Posted by andrei Hy!!! I am new to this forum so I say Hello to everyone here. Ok...got one problem.

Your best bet is the LeatherZ model - cheaper too. Two screw installation that took me 10 minutes - great product and nice people to work with. | | | 09-30-2005, 09:01 PM | #9 | TRETEN IRGENDEINES ESELS Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Rhode Island Posts: 3,687 | Quote: Originally Posted by twomato I tried to buy a black leather armrest from the dealer and they were sold out.

When you buy it from Leatherz you get the center console with it. I bought mine for $70 used from a member on bimmerforums. __________________ 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 | | | 09-30-2005, 09:19 PM | #10 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2005 Location: Hinsdale, IL.

I think I asked you about LeatherZ and ordered one right after - thanks | | | 09-15-2005, 07:34 AM | #11 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Iasi, Romania Posts: 101 | bump | | | | 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 | | | |
