Fold down armrests

Has anyone managed to find anyone offering the traditional 'Fold Down Armrests' as a modification for the Evoque? Really miss them having enjoyed them in my FFRR

Evoque Coupe 2.2 SD4 Dynamic LUX 190HP (in some kind of grey!)

RE: Fold down armrests

I find my elbows quite comfortably rest on the centre console which is padded and also on the door arm rest.You may need to lower the steering wheel to do this .

5 door Pure sd4 Tech Fuji with black roof, tinted windows, ebony seats, style 4 alloys, xenons, fogs,black grille.
Arrived 29/03/2012.

Fold down armrests

Have been wondering about raising the centre arm rest height by propping it up to bring it more level. Experimented already by chocking it up for last few days, was good but unsightly. Maybe a ratchet system on the hinge like in my old Audi would be perfect !!??

RE: Fold down armrests

Gibbyd: what's the cost please, as I can't see it anywhere on their website? Thanks.

I do notice though that their returns policy is fairly brutal, ... 7 days to return at your own cost if they mess up on what's delivered to you as the customer ... No other returns accepted!

How about saving yourselves loads of mony by holding the wheel correctly with both hands. Whistle

My new arm rest was delivered today, really pleased and impressed with the quality of it and the extra comfort it brings. I drive for approx 4 hrs most days and need to be comfortable.

Lets hope you dont have a blow out whilst hurtling down the motorway 1 handed. Its not you I am too concerned about its the other poor Censored you would take out.
Also you could (should) get a ticket for not being in full control of your vehicle
