Red face 944 Armrest Replacement

Anybody out there have one of these?



They are available from <a href="http://www.prestigeparts.co.uk/" target="_blank">Prestige Parts</a>in the UK. The picture makes this piece look pretty high quality.

The price is pretty high ($75.99 USD + shipping), I was wondering if anyone has a source for them in the US...

Thanks,
Brendan

Wow, if you can find them I'm interested too! I've been looking for a decent cupholder for months...to date everything I've seen is either tacky looking or looks like Rube Goldberg designed it!

Hey Mich924S!

You private messaged me to see if I had gotten one of these armrest replaceemnts yet! Alas I have not...the a-arms/struts and timing belts and oil leak sapped me of 944 funding for a while!! I tried to reply to your message, but your account is set up to not accept messages!

Perhaps in a couple months after the account rebuilds....

That sure looks nice, but where would you put all the handy stuff that fits in the "standard" armrest? I have a load of spare bulbs, coins, pens, receipts, car wash coupons, nuts, bolts etc "necessary" items in there and the idea of cleaning everything that up is a bit frightening

Looks like normal armrest without cover added with cupholder.Used to have "non-cover" armrest in my previous '87 944na.Should be quite simple to fabricate the cupholder if only you have this simpler style armrest.

Where did you get $75.99?? The website is in pounds, and the coversion is over $80. Imagine Auto has them here, but they're about $85. Shipping is probably a LOT cheaper though.
