F55/F56 Center armrest removal - Is there a cover?
Center armrest removal - Is there a cover?
Hey everyone. Just picked up a new F56 and I'm trying to find an armrest cover that covers up the hole down in the back of the center console when you remove the armrest. I'm a bit bigger guy and I removed the armrest in my R53, but was left with a big hole in the console. I found a place at the time that sold a cover to cover up the metal that looked OEM but never got around to buying one. In this new Mini, I'd like to see if I can cover this hole after I remove it. With the armrest it feels way too tight and I just don't use it.
Burning questions you mayask:
1. Why on earth would you remove the armrest? - Because it feels cramped and I don't use it.
2. But don't you want to charge your phone!? - Nope. It won't even fit in the slot with the case on, AND I always forget my phone when It's not in my pocket!
3. But you're going to ruin the looks of the interior! - Respectfully disagree. Best part of a Mini is customizing it!
4. Do you have a 3D printer to fabricate your own? - GREAT question, yes, I do!! but I can't find any .stl or .3mf files that look like they'd work, that's why I'm turning to all you lovely people!
I really appreciate you taking the time to read this and I hope to find something that will work!
Cheers!

Here yo go. Check out this thread on the delete and what version you need.
Then sell the armrest section to someone whom need to replace theirs.
