Arm Rests
« on: April 29, 2016, 10:12:30 AM »
Has anyone fitted the Armster 2 Armrest??   We're planning an Italian road trip, and any way to make things a little more comfortable would be a bonus.

Cheers

Steve

I think they look good and work pretty well too, as long as you don't lean on it the wrong way! You get a little storage space inside the armrest. Although i'm not sure which version i have probably not your Armster 2 but a cheap chinese copy. Mine is only held in position by 4 self tapping screws at the bottom and it covers the rear drinks holder.

I was thinking about getting one too, but it just looks far too flimsy and weak. I would be fearful of it breaking too easily.
The beatings will continue until morale improves.

I have to say mine is not sturdy, lean on it the wrong way & it creaks with pain ready to break on me. The problem also i think is where the armrest fixes onto the end of centre concole which itself isnt secured very well at that part. Even so its still useful & i use it literally to rest on and not to lean on!
