Yes, very happy with OBDeleven.
BTW, I cannot source an armrest anywhere. I have tried going direct to SEAT themselves and even they cant get one so I've registered on a scrappage site for one in case anyone decides to write off and xcellence very soon
I could really do with a part number for the armrest, so if you ever feel like removing yours for any reason whatsoever, let us know the part number
Subsequently, if anyone on this forum has an armrest in their xcellence they feel they would much rather have a cup holder instead, then I'm your man....£££ waiting
Are the part numbers in the Workshop manual?
It will only cost 6 or 7-ish euro to download from ERWIN SEAT.

If I knew how to do that I would. Any clues?
Cant see where to get the workshop manual.
I just feel if I have the part number I stand a better chance of finding one..
Not having driven the new Ibiza, but in most other modern SEATS, if your car is a manual the armrest just gets in the way of gearchanges - not to mention the handbrake. With DSG it would be OK but all of mine have been manuals and the armrest stays stowed in the vertical position at all times.
Waste of money and effort.

Yes, thanks for that...figured it out in the end, but no part numbers.
Your experience of the arm rest is fair, but for someone who does a lot of motorway driving it's really nice. If you do buy a new Ibiza XCellence then you have a willing buyer here for your armrest.
Thanks this is a good diagram, looks like it may be more complex to fit/remove as sees to bolt through the floor pan. I’ll see if I can get a chance to have a look at mine tomorrow/Monday. Though I appear to only have access to bolts (2) above.
Not sure if it will make a difference but from what I’ve seen the new polo uses the same armrest/fittings, not sure if could be sourced from VW instead?

Great, thanks for taking a look for me.
As long as the VW one matches the Alcantara then I’ll check it out
Yes, but it does look white.
I know a guy who works for VW. Might ask him.
I’ve got no issue with that cost.
Awesome. Unfortunately the configurator won’t let me buy an armrest without a car to go with it
I fear this might be as difficult as it was with SEAT, but I’ll give it a go.
Ok so I have some more pics and a possible part number It now looks as if I can access the 2 bolts to the rear and the screws to the front to remove this completely, won't get a chance now will the weekend. Hope these provide some insight of how the armrest is fitted.
The part number may only relate to the cover I removed but it could still provide a reference to help a dealer find the other parts?
I wonder if on non-armrest cars the tray at the back is removed you can see the metal holder this bolts onto?
