Video tutorial

In this video, see how to install the front centre armrest on our Volkswagen Polo: we couldn't find the exact model shown in the video, but we can recommend a similar model on Amazon with code B07719JK21 priced at £32.99, with delivery at £21.99: it includes a storage compartment and integrated cup holder.

Otherwise, the installation is exactly the same as shown: remove the storage compartment from the centre console, insert the metal feet into the space created, and secure with the supplied bolts.

Refit the cover, and the job is complete.
