Has anyone retro fitted a drivers armrest. I've found lots on ebay but would prefer to have a users choice to make sure it fits. >>

Hi

The early C3 had the option of an integrated arm rest in the seat.

I don't know how well the aftermarket armrests/centre consoles would fit though.

Just tried a central console one.
Not possible to get it forward enough to fit my arm on without obstructing the handbrake access.
