I'm so giddy to finally have... an armrest!! Ordered it on June 24, almost a week ago, and it arrived today. I skipped class 1hr in to it to install the sucker :D Also had my dog "help" me with installing it.
Oh, did I mention its the iST armrest straight from Japan? :) :love:
Yes I have a first aid kit under the passenger seat if you're wondering. I had my dog with me because she was being an annoyance in the house because 1) she couldn't see me, 2) I was in the car without her, 3) she missed me!
Also, it is a bit strange to pull the e-brake with this armrest there now, but its not horrible. It was a super easy install that only required a screwdriver. So happy :) |

| I'm more happy about the fact that I have more storage and a place to rest my arm lol. Tomorrow I'll be driving and able to test it out since I didn't go anywhere after I installed it today. |

Chels any chance there's a toyota part number on it anywhere? It'll be in this format: #####-#####
Looks good. What'd it run you after shipping and everything? |

| I got it off of eBay. As far as a part number I'll have to look for the install manual I have floating around my room somewhere. I think the total price was about... $220ish. Came here within a week as well which was much faster than expected seeing as how my bulbs from England took two weeks. |

| Mine cost $205 total. $60 of that amount was shipping. Still, it got here really quickly, and I am thrilled with it. |

| Thanks! Really appreciate it. I'm going to try and get it through the dealer where I know the Scion sales mgr. Hopefully he can pull some strings to let them order it. |

| Nice, keep us posted. Can he get anything in? That'd be sooooo sweet. I would SO buy the IST frontend.. even if it's like 1000 bucks, I don't care. I want it. |

| Oh hell if I could get a body from Japan I would LOVE to get the special edition iST body kit they have. Looks much bedda than the stock one. Plus I'd love to get a hold of their headlamps instead. :lalala: |

LOL! I'll get pricing on everything... but please provide links to eBay or pictures at the least.
Has anyone done a full transplant on the body panels to know which are needed? The last thing you'd want is to order some items and miss a bracket that takes forever to get in, lol! |

| Yup. Very lame. When I got my car last year they said it was coming out in Fall, then Winter, then it disappeared from the website. |
