Default custom armrest

I wanted an armrest for my TI, so I built one. I glued 2x4s together so I could turn on a lathe the supports that fit the cup holders. I used other scrap wood to make the support for the back of the armrest. I stacked a 2x6 with 3/4 inch material to get the height that was comfortable. Covered with polyfill for cushioning and then vinyl. I also drilled the wood supports so they did not rest on the screws of the bmw cupholders.

Cons: This takes away the cupholders, I didn't use them that much. And it is not bolted down, so in case of an accident, it could go flying.

Pros: Comfortable armrest!
