Default Armrest; what to get?

The wife loves her '99 GLS Bug, automatic. However, the cup-holders are useless except for shot-glasses. And the stupid plastic pieces break.

I've seen a center armrest on eBay but not elsewhere. Anyone using one? Where did you get it? What are good options?

There's one on eBay that you can add a cup-holder piece to it. She didn't like the door mount options. Anyone have any good ideas on a product they liked? This eBay one is $40 to ship. Yikes

If you want a non-ebay one I suggest a junkyard, alot of them you can take the whole damn center console for like 30 bux!

Perhaps I misspoke with console. She wants an armrest in the center.

I don't have one in mine - but saw your post - and remembered this website had one that looked pretty good. http://www.aiwana.com/Merchant2/merc..._Code=Interior - it looks to be an insert for the existing arm rest that has the cup holder.
