Default Armrest feedback?

For those of you with the aftermarket armrest:

What do you think of it? My wife thinks we should pick one up but she's concerned that it won't be long enough. She is 5'3" so sits with the seat fairly far forward. I can take or leave the armrest but think that with my 6'4" frame I would have more of an opportunity to use it.

So is it worth the $349?

Default GET IT - You'll be VERY HAPPY!

I'm 5'4", very comfortable. Yes, worth the $350!<ul><li><a href="http://www.tt-designparts.de/">Importers ...</a></li></ul>

Default Thanks

We take delivery in mid June, looks like we'll be ordering a Forge DV, Becart license plate frames, and the armrest so we can install them right away.

Thanks for the feedback.

Default The armrest is well worth the cash --- also....

in your post below, you mentioned getting Becart license plate frames (plural) -- be forewarned: I don't think it'll work on the front as the front plate holder is slightly curved and the Becart frame ain't gonna bend. I highly recommend it for the rear though!

Default We'll have to get one of the frames from Clairparts

If the Becart won't fit on the front then maybe just a plain raised border frame or even one with the "Audi" or "Quattro" label...

Thanks for the heads up.
