Armrest For The Smart 451

[Smartster]

The last couple weeks I have been busy adding parts on to my smart "forfiveone" and finally this weekend I got around to uploading photos and giving some feedback on a few of the parts I have on the car.

The armrest was a really important upgrade for me, so much so I ended up ordering 2 of them just in case one was different or one got lost in the mail. Both of the suppliers I ordered from don't seem to have a steady supply and there is no markings on the armrest but I hope they'll reply to me and let me know where people can buy one. I will be selling one of my armrests as of course I only need one and expect the other armrest to arrive next week.

Here are a couple photo's of the armrest installed:

There are a few more photos and details on the project car's website here:

The install was easy all it required was a screw driver and a nice warm place to do everything (minus 8 outside). Took less then 30 minutes to do everything and once installed it does really change the way you feel in the car, especially if you get stuck in traffic.

If you have any questions, want some different angle photos or have a comment please let me know here.

Looks great! I am getting the red interior. Do you know if your supplier has matching armrests for the different colored interiors?
