Question Center Armrest

Hey folks I need Help!!!! i have a MY01 beetle, the top piece or my armrest broke and i am looking at replacing the whole unit because i want a black one. My question is on ebay all they show are units for golfs and jettas; i was wounder if the golf unit would work in my bug, if not then those any one know where i can find one. The dealership wants $400 plus for a new one.

I had a similar question when I first read Niki's thread (How-To Install an Armrest!).

After some googling, I found:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/VW-New-Beetle-Armrest-Console-Grey-Cloth-Brand-New_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33695QQitemZ2800950 5779
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/VW-Ne...mZ280095050913


but I know nothing about them. Has anyone had any experience with them? Seems like you get it delivered for a little over 60 USD, which is probably better than the dealership price mentioned above.

Thanks,

Seemant

I did The thread where you gave instructions on intalling the center armrest is locked and that's why I kept failing to post -- which makes me a total newbie

Hehe, ah yes! I didn't think of that! Since it's a how-to or somethingerother you can't post in those. Glad you got it figured out!
