I am wondering if it is any chance to mount a VW armrest into my Fiat Stilo Active.
Here are some pictures with the armrest for VW.

Please also let me know if you are aware about some places where I can buy an armrest that can be easily fit into Stilo Active.

Thanks.

if you are going to fit one try a fiat one if possible.

No luck with the link that you have provided. I understood that you cannot buy an after market armrest for Stilo.

Whats the point, your hands should be on the steering wheel? If your arms are so long you can hold the steering wheel properly and put your elbows on the arm rests you really shouldn't be driving, you should be at the Circus freak show!

I don't know if i could drive without an arm rest these days, I much prefer how it feels.

I really like to drive with an armrest and the only one armrest that I liked until now is the one for VW. My concern is if it is possible to mount this armrest on Active version.

I have asked also at my Fiat dealer if they can sell me an armrest, but they don't.

I am wondering how the armrest from Dynamic is attached to the console.

found these pics on an italian forum it shows
how the arm rest is screwed to the console
hope it helps

Any chance to find the armrest that is used on the Dynamic at some auto parts stores ?

I think that the VW armrest it will be very difficult to fit.

Jud,

Is it any post in that italian forum that points out some vendors for the armrest.

Thanks

no i dont think so ( i think someone retro fitted it, got it from a scrappy probably)

the only stilo i know of in a scrappy in the uk is a 3 door 1.6 dynamic see

i dont know if thay have still got it give um a bell you might be lucky

let us know how you got on

Just seen this post and remembered seeing this auction...

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/TOYOTA-YARIS-...ryZ10428QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Look at the item description, it says about bravo/a and punto 2.b aftermarket armrests, Email the seller cos it says "Briefly, other models of car covered are:"

Hope this gets you somewhere...

I finally succeded to mount an ORIGINAL armrest into my Stilo Active. It took me around 200 Euro with all the additional parts. I will post some pictures soon.

Good to see that you finally managed to get the job done. Was it worth the money then?

Mine has decided to go wrong; it won't lock in any position. Have tried to take it apart but it looks like it's just gonna snap; new one is around £75

or ya cud buy a new 1 of these £19
