Selling my JDM Armrest Console (Southern CA Only)
Hey Southern CA,
I have a "BASE" Fit and the Imported Armrest Console that I bought from College Hills Honda doesn't fit the base model. Check the classified section to see the sale.

I have a Base Model AT Fit and the armrest comsole will not fit it.
The Imported Console will Fit the Sports Model AT and I can only assume that it fits all MT models.

You could always use a permanent black marker and paint the hinge,,,

I think the reason could be because the Base Model autos since they dont come with paddles have more options on the actual selector... thus making it a more longer shape. They probably installed it on a sport which is only "PRNDS" not "PRND321"... make sense?

Armrest
I have ordered the Armrest from Japanparts.com on June 15th, and I got the part on June 21st. Pretty fast shipping. My hubby installed it for me today, finished the whole installation in half an hour, easy, for him.
We have taken tons of picture of our installation. If you need the instruction, just hola, I will post the it step by step with pictures.
I am so happy that I got this part and satisfied the outcome. The console just matches the car perfectly, I highly recommend it!

can't believe I just read all 18 pages of this tread.. lol ... looks like after reading this thread it has re-confirmed my decision to get the JDM console.. I've always been a JDM whore with my other Honda's... just seems to look the best.. and I don't even have a Fit......... YET!

I don't have a problem shifting at all. This was by far the best add-on I've done so far. Of course it might be that raising the seat an inch and a half like I did might be the difference in shifting comfort. Between the two, I just got back from a 3000 mile trip to Fla. and it was a pretty comfy ride. Kinda expected to need traction or a Swedish message, but all was good.
Now if somebody could tell me what the heck those two slots on the front of the removable cup section are for.......

so far when I read throught the 18 pages of this thread only one person had that problem of it sitting too high, and I'm assuming the rest that got it have 5MT???

No, didn't mean to imply that. I just put some longer bolts with washers to raise it. Seriously huge comfort improvement, at least for me. With the steering wheel so darn close to the dash the further back I adjusted the seat the more outstretched my arms were. I figured the only solution was a vertical one, not horizontal.

Ah, I see your from the Land of the North. Unfortunately for us USDM Fitters we don't have the telescopic option, only tilt. I'm only 5'8", 32" inseam, but I couldn't get any thigh support without sending the seat all the way rearward, but seeing as I don't have the armlength of a circus freak I had to go with only other option I could.
