e36 Arm Rest in a e30???

[Stevie30]

I bought an e46 console/armrest at a BMW salvage yard. Best mod I have made thus far. Armrest makes for a comfortable road trip.

you have the best looking one I've seen to date. do you have a writeup/more pics?

also, are the cupholders on the e46 better than the e36? my e36 ones suck!

My e46 ones are very good in my e46 wagon. Much better than the e36 ones were.


Also I would like to see a write up for the install above. Its the best one I have seen as well.

Pics as promised...my whole center plus armrest use to be tan..but I swapped the black one from my M3 in there. I can't decide if i want a black or tan armrest.

you fitted your e36 center console very well, especially in the back.

/\ What did you use to make it so it wouldn't be all over the place. It doesn't look mounted at all.

My E30 actually came with it installed, its just mounted with the stock E36 plastic block. I'll try and get some pics of just the mounting block for you guys...

I <3 the one power window

lol - actually the switch is for the sunroof - got sick of reaching up to press the button on the roof - so moved it down to the console. Never did get around to doing the power window install :(
