VanillaRice 11-11-2004, 02:45 PM Welcome to the site. You have to PM Tblizzard to put in an order. As for other armrests you just need to do a search. Can't help you much there...

thank youGet the Zeta arm rest it fits way better and stronger.
Max2k 11-11-2004, 03:08 PM The Tblizzard armrest just drops into your back cupholder. I have one and it's quite nice.
spyla 11-11-2004, 03:22 PM where can I buy TBlizzard Armrest?
MattyRattyPoo 11-11-2004, 03:22 PM Go with Zeta. It's way better!
pdrizzle 11-11-2004, 03:22 PM I don't know about any of the others, but the Zeta armrest was a breeze to install and one of my favorite additions to my box. Getting to the parking break is a bit awkward, but it's definitely accessible. The armrest is very high quality and you would swear it came with the car because it matches my leather almost exactly. Like I said, it has been one of my best purchases for my xB.
Max2k 11-11-2004, 03:23 PM You have to PM tblizzard.
spyla 11-11-2004, 03:29 PM pardon my ignorance, is TBlizzard sold by a person, not sold by a company?
how do I PM Tblizzard?
zetaproducts 11-11-2004, 04:02 PM Thanks EVILDAVE and pdrizzle for the armrest plugs. I would be happy to offer our armrest. You can also buy through precisionmuffler.com, allscion.com, scionlife.com and scionspecialties.com.
zetaproducts 11-11-2004, 04:04 PM Also thanks to MattyRattyPoo for the plug.
Max2k 11-11-2004, 04:42 PM Evildave: you might want to change the link in your sig. Zetaproducts.com has nothing to do with armrests!
but www.precisionmuffler.com has everything to do with armrests and Zeta products. :) Go with the zeta armrest now available at www.precisionmuffler.com
I went with JJ Products armrest. It is fabric and matches the stock upholstery perfectly....unlike the Zeta vinyl -covered armrest, that, I think, looks wrong in a fabric interior. See it in "parts"

AMEN!!! At Scion Exposed Philly I got to test Sit in Xb's with the other armrests. And vise versa. Of the 6 people sitting in my rig, 5 agreed JJ was the best fit and most convenient.
EASY INSTALLLLL. Read the reviews under Aftermarket Interior stuff here in Scionlife. They review the armrests.
scionspecialistvegas 11-11-2004, 05:45 PM I aint cuttin my seat, I like the Zeta it work great, the other all have thier warrants. Go Zeta. Thanks Angelo for the Plug. Gabe is it shameless plug season yet? Bill
pardon my ignorance, is TBlizzard sold by a person, not sold by a company?
how do I PM Tblizzard?
Yes TBlizzard is a person who fabricates each armrest to order. I like the look of his armrest too, just haven't ordered one. I like how it just drops into the cupholder. Seems very stable too.
TheScionicMan 11-11-2004, 06:07 PM Yes, Tbblizzard is an Sl member, not a company. Here's a link to armrest info. PM him from there too.

Personally, I've got the Zeta and love it. I have some neck/back issues and leaning to one side was aggravating them. having the armrest is SO much nicer. It didn't cure my issues or anytthing, but stopped aggravating them and provided some balance.
I haven't seen or tried any of the other products, so can't compare and wouldn't be so bold as to say the ONE I';ve seen is the best, but that's just me.
Minsk99 11-11-2004, 06:26 PM JJ Products all the way!
I aint cuttin my seat, I like the Zeta it work great, the other all have thier warrants. Go Zeta.
You want to cutt away your seat?? what if it doesn't come out right and than your stuck with a defective armrest and a cutt in your seat. buy the zeta armrest and an axle back at www.precisionmuffler.com :) Discounts to SE members too.
squirrel 11-12-2004, 12:38 AM I got an armrest from Japan. Does that count? Its sits in the center area.
JJ Products. Matches the interior fabric, flips up out of the way. Installation is not too tough if you follow the instructions, took me about 30 mins. 8)

the zeta armrest took me about 10min to install and it is sturdy enough for a big mexican like myself. The armrest that attaches to the seat makes it seem like an astro van or something to that nature. Thats why I went with zeta. :D
hotbox05 11-12-2004, 01:59 AM i like the jj products one but thats just me i'm too broke to buy a stinkin arm rest anyways
DougH 11-12-2004, 02:57 AM I've got a Zeta and like it, install was very easy. It was a little low for my taste so I made about a 2" extension to raise it higher and find it much more comfortable now.

spyla 11-12-2004, 02:12 PM it will be zeta or tblizzard for me. I am not too keen on ripping open my seat to install JJ.

Wise choice!

Care to expand on how you made the extension. I would like to add about 4" to my Zeta arm rest. Thanks.
