Replacing a Center Armrest? (2007 Yaris S Sedan 4 dr)
Hello everyone,
I have a 2007 Yaris S Sedan that has seen better days. Today's job is to either repair or replace the armrest/storage compartment. It was overstuffed and forced closed by my wife. Hence, the lid was pushed forward and will not stay closed. The lid tends to "pop-up" and hit my elbow while I'm driving. More a surprise jack-in-the-box than anything. Anyway, the armrest is integrated with the trim of the ebrake and gearshifter (this is similar to what I have: armrest) and I cannot find a replacement for it that's not for a hatchback or similar to this http://tinyurl.com/ovc6fnr. Has anyone else experienced this? Thanks in advanced! |

junkyard price here go as much as 100USD. see this.

First of all, you are a saint. Thanks again for the help. Anyway, it turns out that I had to take the backing off of it and tightened 4 screws that had worked themselves out a little. Tightened the lid and fixed the problem. I'll see if I can upload some pictures later.
