TT Style Mini Mania Arm Rest Opinions?



I like the look of this arm rest better than anything else on the market but it costs a small fortune compared to many options except the Mini Fini. Does anybody here have one. Do you like it? What is the grey part made of - is it plastic like the stock parts? Do you want to sell it? - PM me if so. :smile:

Here is a similar alternative - for half the cost -but I still like Mini Mania's better.

I actually like this one better, and at a MUCH lower price.

Well, I ended up ordering the first option from Stratmosphere - they are much less than Mini Mania. I will post a review here.

I rode in a MINI with that style arm rest and I liked it but I prefer the way the one I ordered is the same shape of the door panels. I am going to have my interior and the arm rest painted body color so it will look original.

FYI...Should you choose to install a short shift kit with a shortened rod on top, the arm rest will likely interfer with your shifting.
