    Arm rest in astra

    Can you get an arm rest for a mk3 Astra or can you retro fit one from a different car?

    I've seen one fitted before (think they got it from Germany also). It fits to the little tray at the back of the centre console thingy just back of the handbrake, will try to find some photos

    Cheers mate.
    Would look real nice in the mk3 imo.
    I bet they're not cheap to buy and import

    tbh that's why i want one.
    Been driving the Vectra with an arm rest in and love it.
    Wanted it in the Astra now.
    £30 sounds good to me.
    Now to learn German

    Theres a couple for sale over on www.VauxhallOwnersNetwork.co.uk from the last Group buy we did, they are the ones i collected from Germany last year. They have brackets to fit the Cavalier, but are pretty much universal fitting, and come in Leather or cloth.

    http://www.cavweb-forums.co.uk/showt...hlight=armrest

    EDIT, only the one above available now, the other has been sold.

    Yes I did mate cheers.
    He seems to think it'll dqueeze in an astra.
    Am I right in thinking the tape holder is replaced by this?
    and the arm rest folds up to show a small square holder?
