How to install the armrest in a CITROEN C3 from 2017 onwards

Model: Citroen C3 SY, SX - Years 2016-2023
Part: Seat

Installing an armrest on your Citroën C3 is easier than you think. Choose a compatible model, either universal or specific. Then slide the front seats back to create space. If the armrest has a mounting base, place it on the central tunnel and mark the points for the screws. Use a thin drill to make the holes and screw tightly, or remove the round plate and slide in a long screw. If it is a snap-on armrest, simply press until it locks into place. Make sure it is secure and try lifting the cover to ensure it functions properly. In less than half an hour, you have added a touch of comfort to your C3. If you do not feel comfortable doing it yourself, contact a trusted workshop.
