Door panel armrest-haters...UNITE! ('03,'04,'05)
Time for some hatin'! Allow me.
Am I the only owner who is absolutely tired of the uncomfortable (not to mention cheap looking) door panel armrests? Sure, 2006 and newer owners have a nice comfy armrest on each door, but we '03-'05 owners deal with the discomforts of el cheapo armrests. The keyword here is REST, and they're too crappy for any type of resting. Forget about a long drive with a comfy left elbow. It ain't happenin.
Am I the only one interested in upgrading to the 2006's padded door panel armrests??? Has anyone lifted a pair of these off a salvage vehicle and installed them in their '03, '04 or '05?? Does anyone sell them yet? I haven't seen them a n y w h e r e.
Thoughts? Maybe a group buy if there is enough of us? Perhaps we can persuade someone to stock a bunch if there is enough of a demand.
ps: Don't hate on me for wanting some semblance of quality in my interior You all know what I'm talking about.

I never use the arm rests. I have one hand on the wheel at all times, and either my right hand will be on the shifter, or the left hand will be resting on the top of the window sill, against the glass. The arm rest on my drivers side never sees action.
I'd like to see pics of the '06 padded rests though...you've got me curious. Can someone please post a pic of their 06+ coupe armrest??

I'm so excited!!!!
what are we talking about?
LOUD NOISES!!!
oh, armrests.
WAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHGAAAGA GAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!
yeah, i'm a two hand on the steering wheel or one hand on wheel + one hand on shifter type driver, but i could see how someone could want that as an improvement. Good call on the 06 ones. I'm sure somebody, somewhere, has wrecked their 06 coupe by now. just wrench some off.
