Centre arm rests. |

Has anyone ever had any success obtaining these to fit a Micra? I inherited one when I purchased "Family Hack" and although the size of the arm rest itself fits okay between the front seats it's mounting bracket is not even close to fitting a Micra. I'll have to fabricate a bracket if I want to use it.
I've taken a gamble and bought a different brand one from Germany. The item itself was not too expensive but the shipping costs are murder, I've not received it yet. Will keep you all posted on that one. Mychael |

i think the best way to do it is weld the bracket to the seat frame. but
unless your getting your seats re trimmed then its a waste of time cause you have to take it apart. |

The first set I have was a fibreglass bracket. Which did not suit anyway. If I make up a bracket I think I would probably bolt it through the tunnel.

Hey Napster,your lucky in that you got lots of stuff we missed out on here.
Different trim options, what looks like electric windows (adds weight but nice to have), the centre armrest and the top dash insert. Mychael |

GTRHOLIC - Got any pics of your unit with the drink holders? Got any pictures? :)
I know they'd probably be hell to try and find, but where'd you find it? ---dens |

Well the other arm rest I ordered from Germany has arrived. No good either I'm afraid. Whilst the mounting system is better and could be adapted the arm rest itself is too wide to fit between the Micra seats.
It will jam in but then foul every time you moved the seats to adjust them. So another dead end and money down the drain. Oh Well. Mychael |
