    I own a Prius C one and I am installing a center Storage compartment/ Arm rest between the front seats (The C one doesn't include a center storage compartment).

    I need to know if the black plastic base of the Storage Compartment/ Arm rest unit is secured firmly to the floor of the Prius C, or is there a loose wiggle around the base (in fact can you slip your fingers up under the black plastic base "skirt?") -- or is it really tight and solid?

    Mine is loose and not firmly attached to the floor by the rear passenger's feet -- (To further clarify, there's a cup holder that unfolds out from the back of the central storage compartment and it's down around the base of the unit near the floor).

    I would really appreciate your help - I think I am missing some parts.

    Mine is nice and snug. I have the cup holder out the back.

    I second ztanos. I can't budge the storage compartment. I can get a screwdriver under the skirt, but not even my very small fingers. The bottom of the skirt in the rear can be pushed less than a centimeter inward as it seems only to be attached to the base of the storage compartment.

    Did you install an OEM part, specific for C1 arm rest, or the one for the Yaris?
    :D
