How to Install an Armrest on Opel Astra J

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra J - Years 2009-2016
Part: Accessory kit

Fitting your car with a convenient armrest (which also includes a handy storage compartment) is extremely easy as this accessory can be purchased aftermarket at very affordable prices. The installation of this useful accessory does not require any disassembly, just the removal of the plastic cover located at the bottom of the storage compartment at the rear of the centre tunnel, just behind the handbrake. Insert the new armrest and secure it with the two screws provided at the bottom, then cover them with the supplied carpet mat. The final result will be excellent.
