I am stuck with my armrest update, please can someone with the two-compartment armrest take a pic of the clip/clamp/fastener on the edge of the armrest container where the lid locks into place. I think I have all the parts but I can't for the life of me work out how that clip/clamp/fastener works! :(

A pic of what you have here is needed, my clip was removed because the lid doesn't close properly with it there.

Difficult to see the pattern, unless you want some close-ups?

This isn't helping my armrest problem! Anyone got any idea which clip I need to use?

This is one of the clips:

This is the other one:

both of them screw securely onto the armrest container edge (where the recess is) but the armrest doesn't lock into them or even close with one of those clips! :(

Am I using the wrong clips? Am I not screwing them in the right way around? A pic would be handy, anyone? :D

Shude,

The 22 part is the magnet, that is stuck with the metal part (21)

Regards,

Frenchy.

It is #18 on the euro EPC: 202 683 02 58 . It is not a magnet but a bracket...

Other lockrelated parts are the ones you probably already have:
202 683 01 58 (for taxi international)
202 683 03 12 (front armrest)

Great pics, Boxa! Can't get over the beauty of that black/blue 2-tone. :D

Maxboxa and Luwin1026, those pics are great!

I have never seen that clip/clamp/fastener before but it is the EXACT one I need, it has the recesses for the two softly spung plastic clips on the inner compartment and everything! Is there any chance one of you guys could unscrew it (only two screws and a couple of washers underneath) to see what part number is moulded into the underside of it, if it has one? :D

I know it's asking a lot, but this part is the last thing I need to finish the installation and it's escaped me at every turn! :(

This piece looks like a wire clip or hook or as Steve describes a "bracket". The stealership say they have this "in stock" (meaning it's in the UK) and they can get it for me, but it's probably not the right part... It is cheap though, only a few pennies (I haven't paid for ANY of the clips yet so... :D ).

I will order *02 58 and see what arrives :) .

I'd still like someone to pop the clip off their armrest edge and read the part number off it please, I'm certain we've missed it here.

ok guys I have just ordered:

202 683 02 58

202 683 02 12 (unknown)

202 683 04 58 (I think... also unknown)

They were all cheap and arrive on saturday :)

Upping this old tread, please does the double compartment armrest cover feel more softly/confortable than the standard one I have (no double compartment). Mine is really a cheaper solution.

Does all the USA W202 come from factory with the double compartment armrest (telephone option here in Europe I belive).

Does someone have all the part number I need to up-grade our cheaper solution? I'll be interested if someone confirm that it's more refined and confortable.

Thanks a lot

:)
