poll what type of armrest do you have?

[lostforawhile]

interesting question, I know everyone has seen the SEI type armrest, but how many have the other type? the taller one where the top opens. I haven't seen that many of them, and I thought it was interesting that it was identical to the JDM crx armrest. I spent two hours hanging upside down in a wrecked car, sawing off seat brackets with a dull hacksaw to get this out. in 100 degree heat and Georgia bugs.

type I'm talking about

can someone put up a picture of the SEi armrest?

Mine is leather and opens up...I was actually thinking about redoing it and keeping it. But I might not.

I have some pictures but photobucket is down right now.

*edit*

Just decided to upload it to imageshack

http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y126/labeledsk8r/Picture006.jpgyea i permanently repaired the part where the top section cracks on the bottom. got rid of the plastic buttons where the screws went through and changed it to a solid aluminum plate screwed in from both sides. much stronger. did those arm rests come with nut plates to hold on the second set of screws, or was it screwed straight into the plastic?

[AccordB20A]

i has JDM arm rest y0, in grey/black

[gtmst3]

i have the sei style and im no going to say there easy to come by but i have seen quite a few in the jy by me i dont like the way the other one looks

[mykwikcoupe]

2 sei in black plastic. one tan cloth super rare 89 lxi upgraded one and soon to have 2 more. not sure on color though ill have to ask. I sold a few of the taller ones over the years mostly in blue.

[import racer]

What is the red tag on them,mine doesn't have that.

Its the seatbelt release warning blah blah. Your supposed to be able to get in/out of our cars without removing the seatbelts (yeah right...)

Ive tried a few times on the hatch and coupe. it would take a man stronger then I to push the door open when the belt is still engaged. I was always curious of how it was supposed to work. It seems pretty self explainitory as use but not as an emergency exit procedure.

I still don't understand it.

[SZfiftyfour]

SEi style in my old 89 LXi coupe. No idea if it was stock.

[charliekuney]

That's definitely stock. Man, I want a red armrest!

[SZfiftyfour]

^ Stock as in from the dealer I mean, or if someone added it later from another car.
I wish I had pulled it out before I sold it. That and the oem wing.

[2drSE-i]

The button is an emergency release, meaning the seatbelt would still be engaged (say, after a wreck) so you would have to press the button. Otherwise, the seatbelt is loose, and you can supposedly open the door and slide out from under the seatbelt. I for one, cannot do this comfortably, nor can anyone else i dont think.

[RobT5580]

Yeah mine is a LXI style because its beige cloth that matches my interior. I have a SEI one as well that i am saving for when i convert to a black interior.

yeah man thats an upgrade from the factory, if i remember correctly when i test drove that car it had every dealer option installed except the cd changer includeing a sun roof if im not mistaken

[87AccordLXsdn]

Actually just finished redoing one that I grabbed from the junkyard. I have plans of redoing the armrest at some point, but until then I have an old shirt stapled to it. Looks pretty decent if you ask me! Sorry for the crappy cell pics.

[lostforawhile]

It appears the one i have isn't very common at all.

[fallen40379]

apparently i have the se-i one, i found it sitting in a junkyard....believe me when i literally jumped into the car after it. i felt as if someone was gonna snatch it out from under my nose. Anyone know where i can get cup holders for my accord?

[jasonrebellion]

mine is like the 2nd one in labeled's post, its crappy and the previous owner broke it and tried fixing it be screwing it down with wood screws and its come loose again.
