Armrest

I bought one of these several months ago and it works just fine. Able to sit up stright with my arm on the rest as opposed to leaning a bit with the stock console rest.
I did find that it was a bit awkward shifting (5 speed) as using the arm rest extension places your arm and hand much higher.
Found a solution, also on e-bay. Guy named 1320performancefreak makes and sells solid bronze shifter extensions. Really, really good quality, $16.95 with free shipping.
I bought a 3 1/2 inch extension, threaded 12 x 1.25 thread, with a 15 degree bend. Now the shifter falls right under my hand when my arm is resting on the rest.
Just for info for others with a 5 speed manual tranny.
