Browse through the Sponsor Directory.

I have this one. Three screws mount it to the back cupholder. I have no complaints, and there is a little more storage.



Moss Mini also carries this product. There are other styles out there if you burrow through the vendor's offerings.

TVA/gotmini has a nice one at 50 or so bucks. It's a little smaller than the Woodcompany one shown above (which is quite bulky once installed). I sold my Woodcompany armrest (with storage) and hav'nt found a good replacement yet, but the TVA is the right price...

I have/had the same one as Nuvolari, but I removed it after 2 weeks, it did nothing but squeak and make obnoxious noises. Was a disappointing experience.

mini-fini has a new one under development that actually looks good in the pics, their cupholder is awesome, so I would expect the arm rest to also be a nice piece of kit.

I'd highly recommend waiting for the MINI-FINI armrest: MINI-FINI Armrest Review
