How to install an armrest in the Mini Cooper?

Model: Mini Mini R57, R55, R56 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this tutorial we can see how to install an armrest in your Mini Cooper, a very simple operation. First of all, disassemble the rear cup holder compartment, then remove the screws from the central tunnel just released. We then unhook both the handbrake gaiter and the console frame, remove the base of the gear lever and dismantle both front panels. At this point we can completely remove the tunnel, mount the armrest together with the support and put everything back together. Depending on the model chosen, it may be necessary to replace the plastic of the tunnel.
