I have the JDM OEM armrest as well. I'd say it was worth the price too.

JDM Honda Armrest console - Fit 2007 & UP GD3

Direct replaces the USDM console. Price: CAD $335.00 (USD $299.12)

Very tempting! I wonder if it IS available and what is the wait time.

Dang, I am loving that OEM Fit/Jazz center console and armrest, any info on where a Canadian customer could pick one of those babies up?

folding vs. non folding arm rest opinions

I will be getting a Sport Auto in the next few weeks. I'm thinking one thing I will want is an arm rest. The Non-folding armrest from zeta looks pretty sturdy and appears to have more storage than the folding.
One complaint i've read about the foldingis that it gets in the way of the break. Does anyone have the non-folding arm rest? What do you think of it? What about the folding one? Do either get in the way or feel flimsy?

Fit armrests...

i have been thinking about getting an armrest but dont want to pay the $300+ jdm price.

i was on this site and saw that a couple of members make or sell 3rd party arm rests.

anyone have any experience with them?

are they pretty sturdy?

If your planning to use them as an armrest they are study enough but if planning to sit on one instead and it will break.

You should be able to get a good 3rd party one for about US$100.

I bought mine years ago from Italy from Wood Company. http://www.woodcompany.com/hondapage.htm
Wasn't cheap as hand made from fine Napier leather.

They have an outlet in the US

US$100 ones from other places are plastic and vinyl and like this

do any of the armrests have any adverse affects wtih the different "modes"? I am pretty sure i saw the JDM one has no problems, as would be expected, how about any of the aftermarket add-ons?
