E36 Center Armrest question

[Ubi Wan]

Sifus,Am planning to purchase and install a center armrest on my 1997 E36 318i. Saw one on Mudah.my by Autobahn for RM550 for E36.Question1. Does the armrest fit all models or does it have to be specific for the 318i?2. Is RM550 a rsonable price for the item.3. Do the "potong shops" sell center armrests?Thanking youz in advance

1) An e36 armrest fits all e36 models
2) I see it's around that price but do make sure that it comes complete. Try to negotiate a bit. See this http://bmwfans.info/parts/catalog/E...2/december/browse/vehicle_trim/armrest_front/
3) Yes they do if they got potong some e36 with armrest

Tumpang thread, been wondering if the e46 center console can be modified to fit nicely in an e36?

I wanted to do this aswell, however it involves some trimming of the armrest assembly itself (if I remember correctly, its the front near the gear console). There was a thread on this, could not find it at the moment tho.

Maybe I'll just get the cupholder trays from BA and be done with it..but if you go ahead with it please update :biggrin:
