Thumbs up

Yes, they fit the fit.
College hills honda already test fitted one.
Didn't you watch the video???
They are JDM, but do to a language problem,
they decided to order them from an Aussie
dealer, rather then a Japanese dealer.

I got a center armrest from maxdax.com (in Singapore) for $38.00 plus $42.00 shipping air USPS -- arrived in a week. Don't know what Honda dealers are selling, but this one looks to be genuine, with a leather top, storage bin and cupholder that springs out of the back; easy install -- fits snug into existing cupholder and bin; comes with screws to secure, but I just lined the existing holes with sticky foam and it is totally secure. Can't see what almost three times the amount would get you. Check it out and see for yourself.

Try maxdax.com. $38 plus 42 shipping from Singapore. Got one in one week; looks to be the real thing -- leather, perfect fit. . .Does not flip up, however.

Yours is a aftermarket add on to the US cupholder not the sturdyest design BTW. The one CHH is selling is a replacement 1 piece unit that replaces the console, you have a much sturdier and more integrated look.

All I wanted was a place to rest my arm. For $78 I got it, and, since it does not replace the armrest, I still have the cubbies under it to use. I got the Fit because it was such a good buy for what it gives in return. Want to keep it that way and not get carried away. (Will do a slight mod when available though, to boost power just a bit.) The armrest is quite strudy as well; the pop-out rear cup-holder may be a bit flimsy, but I never ride back there.

None in beige. I have the beige seats and it looks fine with them, and not out of place; the original console is black anyway.

I have the non folding arm rest from Zeta - about $90 if I recall. I'm quite satisfied with it - fits me nicely and lots of good storage space inside. Easy and quick to install.

I bought mine off of ebay. I'll get pics soon. It was about $89 + shipping. The armrest itself is pretty good quality, but teh rest of it is not. It's quite floppy. i was more concered of usability, not looks, so i decided to keep it. It's SO nice to have somehere to putyoru arm while driving!!

I got my JDM console in the summer. I love it and couldn't see myself in my Fit without it.

I just called them at college hills. They said the shipment is currently in transit but should be here soon. They said they already took orders for 23 or more of them and they have 5 left...um make that 4 left after I got mine. So if you want one you better hurry!! Almost sold out.
