Yes, I'm sorry, I forgot to mention this. The armrest you saw on the sport seats is the accessory armrest that "fits" most seats. The sport seats didn't originally come with them, but those "accessory" armrests can fit them. This is why I said you may have to do some cutting, because it is not an exact fit. I was going from memory. BavAuto sells these armrests. You can see the instructions at: http://www.bavauto.com/inst/Armrest5SerStdSport.pdf

Only the comfy seats originally came with the armrests that I posted part numbers for.

Though I'll have to investigate further if the comfy seat armrests actually fit the sport seats via the ETK. It says they are "for" the seats, but I'm not 100% sure. I'll have to translate a few things, then I'll post later when I figure that out 100%, OK?


Chris, Thanks for posting those part numbers! The
armrest in the photo I posted looks different than the one on the comfort seats. The comfort seat arm rests mount to a stud on the seat frame, one small arm rest for each seat. The sport seat picture shows one large arm rest for both seats.

I do not see how the comfort seat arm rest could mount to the sport seat...

Hmmmm...

Scottie
