Armrest..

I'm having issues with my arm rest constantly sliding back and forth..and how flimsy it feels. Any suggestions on replacement or fixes?

Saw this one on ECS.

I have the armrest in the photo you posted. It's been in the R53 now for about 8 months. So far so good. I thought I wanted to take it out the other day just to be able to reach in the back seat easier so I drove around a couple days with it flipped up. That's when I realized how much I really like it. This one stays closed and is very sturdy. I bought mine from ECS and had a couple questions. James from ECS was very helpful.

I had one in my 2008 MINI Cooper S for 6-years and it worked well. Easy to install. Will not slide back...it stays stationary while driving...however, the entire thing does fold up.
