Arm rest

[haz420]

will mk golf/ bora arm rest fit straight in to LC 2002?

 

[heyd_romanian]

i am not sure. i think the ones from the golfs/boras are a bit longer then the ones used in the leons! This is means that it will interfere with the handbrake and probably changing gears!

 

[tris]

yes as i have a leather golf one

 

[haz420]

excellent did ou have to do any mods on this or it was stradight fit? also does this efect in anyways you from driving?

 

[tris]

you have to cut the coin holder out
as for getting in the way not really however i do put it away when i am on track

How easy is it to cut the coin holder out?

 

[heyd_romanian]

Is the golf one cheaper to buy then the leon arm rest?
Set quoted me £160 for parts and labour which for an arm rest i think it's a lot!

[heyd_romanian]

I know a guy on ebay as well that sell's the OEM one's for about £40 but I am not too keen on it.

You can also get OEM Armrests from Ibex in Spain. I got a Cupra one, for my Ibiza for about £110.00, im sure they can supply Leons as well

While on the subject of armrests those of you who have one, is this a picture of a Genuine Volkswagen Group armrest and does it look like all the bits are there to fit it?

 

[tris]
