It looks abit too narrow to me, there are a number of Golf Mk5 original VW arm rests on Ebay, take a look at the attached:

Hi zf44, thanks a lot, that's even better... :beerchug: , though the price (£195, or £220 with vents operational) is a bit on the high side... any ideea how much fitting could be (I guess that's not really a DIY job for an amateur)?

Best to shop around, I saw more examples on Ebay. On fitting, the labour costs can be anything up to £200 at a franchised dealer but why not save the money and fit it yourself? Have a look at the attached link, there is some information on how to fit it.

From this thread it looks like a Golf MK5 arm rest would fit into an 05 plate Golf Plus. Can anyone confirm this?

Are the plastics all the same for Golf Golf Plus or do I need specific Golf Plus plastics
