Installed an Armrest for the xB
I just received an armrest for my xB from a company called Wood Company. Believe it or not, its not wooden, but a black wear resistant synthetic leather that is supposed to outlast real leather. It was easy to install, it only took 8 minutes (including time to admire my work). The armrest has a metal bracket the goes down the side of the cup holder and screws into the bottom. They even included a peice of adhesive felt to cover up the screws at the bottom. There isn't any storage space, but the armrest flips up an out of the way when not in use, and for $89 bucks the price was not bad.
Oh, and these guys actually respond to email. I emailed them with a question before I ordered, and they got right back to me. I am also looking for something to hold items in the back, like the bottle of armour all that keeps rolling around. Anyone see some kind of nets or cargo gear?

My arm fits fine, but I am 5 foot 9, so not really tall. :? Although the armrest comes over the back part of the brake handle, it is on a hinge so that when you pull the brake up the armrest moves up too. I can also flip it completely up and out of the way when I want to.

xB Armrest
I purchase mine from Zeta products www.zetaproducts.net
It fits great, folds up, & matches the grey interior trim perfectly.
$125 + shipping. I love mine & my local Scion dealer is gonna
stock them.

Why spend so much for so little. breunor has plans for a diy armrest/console that can be built for under $20 it works I made mine and love it. the only thing i changed was i used 1/4" plywood and assembled it with small nails.

There is something to be said for the price one would pay...the TBlizzard armrest has flip up storage, flip-up cup holder, looks stock IMO and has proven to become very comfortable while blending in with the interior pretty closely. It is a non-permanent stop-gap solution until the ultimate armrest comes (padded, matching, flip-up storage with utility power built in... !) along.
I have had it for more than a few months now and the Box would feel funny without it. Nothing against the others, they all do what they say and serve the owners/creators well and honestly, anything is better than nothing no matter which you spend your cash on...

why is it that everone has to 'BUY' a console that does a halfassed job when the plans to make the perfect console are available on this site. Could it be no one knows how to use an electric saw or pound a few small nails ,turn a couple woodscrews or cut and glue a little fabric :? :? :? :? :? :? :? :? :? SO SAD

Yeah, why do you people have to buy a Scion. Go build one yourself. There are toilet, toothbrush, tissue paper (2 ply even) that can be made or anything from eBay. Gee, you people are so so so so stupid is the word?
