bakili · 09-01-2010, 03:17 PM

does anyone roughly how much split sliding armrest cost to buy from main dealer?

If the Girl Friend puts her split on the arm rest you get it to be slipping and sliding for nothing

Yes it was a £200 option, I have it on mine and its well worth having.
But retrofit? Maybe it'll cost even more!

A leather one is about £190, fake leather one about £115. The handbrake gaiter is fake leather even when you have real leather elsewhere so that will give you an idea of the appearance/quality.

It's a doddle to fit except for getting the spring back in. If you do without the spring (like I did) the only change is that the armrest won't lie half open by itself.

Earlier models of E9x didn't have the spring anyway.

The factory option price is about £95 if I recal,

So the parts price will be more of course.

Faux leather will be a bad move....

I was thinking only today how Id like this option, but for £300 they can whistle.
