IIRC it's only black or grey. Anyone that's bought one have been very complimentary about them. Not too sure where's the best place to buy one now.

Sorry for posting to such an old thread but seemed appropriate.

Does anyone know how this will look with the "Dark Grey cloth / Black ambience" standard Pop interior?

Because the interior is more of a dark grey I was wondering anyone knew which Armster armrest would look better. The leatherette black or the grey

to me the grey seems a little too light but just want opinions really and ideally if psosible a pic

thanks

Probably black.
There are pictures posted on post #23 of the grey armrest but IIRC it was on white ambiance.
Have you done a search for armrests on the FF or elsewhere for pictures ?

Unsure what colour it is.

Thank you for your reply - the image you mentioned is not very clear - i originally thought that was leather interior!!

i think black is definately the way to go

I would purchase one in a heartbeat, if it didn't cover up the two drink holders in the back.

Do your passengers take drinks in the back, seriously once you have an armrest you won't look back.

I know it will sound weird, but I sometimes use the gear stick to rest my hand on. Especially on motorways in 6th gear (on Punto Abarth) - I found its in the just right spot!

Bad idea (with a manual). You're transferring force to the gear selectors, which are then pressing (slightly) against the selector hubs in the gearbox, and then wear, leading to imprecise/loose gear selection.

Aaah, thanks man, I didn't know that! No more hand resting!!!

Aren't your rear seat passengers fitted with these cup holders?

The don't fit the American version.

Can I ask is your armrest black or grey? It looks grey in your images. We have the white interior and the plastic trim is more grey than black, so thought grey would be the way to go.

its dark grey (Anthracite !) which matches the interior, on the 2nd pic look at the hand break lever colour.

Morning, does anybody know if there is still a site discount for the Armster.

My car is due back from the body shop any day now (only 3 weeks old and someone rear ended me) and would really like to get an armrest to aide with my daily commute into the City. Ideally the Armster 2 grey trim model.

Thanks

The following discount offered was a couple of years back but I suppose you could give the company a call and see if they'll still knock a tenner off:

They certainly are not cheap, but then I suppose you get what you pay for and having seen some of the universal offerings on ebay I think the Armster 2 is the best one of the lot and is designed to fit correctly with minimal tools and damage to the vehicle. I'm quite tempted to buy 'er indoors' one for her new TA. If you do get one and you get a discount, maybe you could tell us
