    Hi - I ordered from oemtoyotascionparts. dot com. I've attached a list of the parts required below as well as Toyota's part numbers (the armrest/compartment, as well as the brackets and bolts, etc). I should receive all of the parts soon and I am having it installed by my mechanic as it's a bit tricky to pop out the original cup holder between the seats. I will let you know how it works out - and yes we are talking $250 + here to make it happen. FYI I think these folks are in AZ, they are very helpful, and I spoke to: David Harvey
    480-655-4465 (If you spend $300, I think they will give you a free shipping code - so maybe add a Prius C cargo mat/tray to your order or a rear bumper protector...item number is):


    UPDATE: ***************** If you do this, you will need 4 Carrier bolts (not 1) -- see below...and I have absolutely no idea where to install part # 5899752020

    Yeah, I sent the armrest back.... seller was a pain to deal with, they said the cupholder is the armrest compartment. Where in the world is there a square cupholder in any car? Anyway, found the "hopefully" correct version on ebay and it's in NJ so I should have it next week... Fingers crossed... I'll post pics of it installed once it arrives... But at least there are pics of the Yaris armrest inside the PC1

    Yes please let me know how this works out for you - I have the OEM Armrest/ Storage compartment and the metal bracket to attach it to (all Toyota Parts) - but it's not easy nor intuitive at all to install. I am going to take everything to the dealership and have them install it to avoid the frustration. Grrr.......

    Looks good!

    So, for this Yaris Armrest from Amazon…do you have the Amazon "B0000" [ correct part] number handy? (y)

    Thanks! :)

    ps— does anyone have the OEM part numbers for the center-console / armrest, et al?

    I sent the one from Amazon back, it was not the one I wanted and it does not have the hidden cup holder. It also lacked proper support so when you actually put your arm on it it would tilt. I was afraid it was going to break . The one I have now I ordered from eBay and it is the one that I wanted. Has a built in hidden compartment, coin holder and hidden rear cup holder. It's also a one piece and installs in the rear cup holder and is supported by the extra rear cubby. I will be installing it tomorrow night and will post pictures....

    I will post the eBay seller as well... As for amazon with my research seeing they sent a totally different product the seller on amazon sells under 5 different names so its likely he would send the same wrong product at higher or lower prices.

    Thanks for the update Delta. Does it fit pretty snug and feel solid with your arm on it?

    3M taped around the base, gently put it in place so it's holding just with the 2-sided stick tape. I drove on the freeway, over tracks, made some hard turns, etc.. Seems to be holding with no rattles and I put it through over kill usage to ensure if it were kicked from the back or if someone opened the cup holder in rear roughly that it would not jar loose...

    Very happy with it... Worth the $50....

    Yes.... It does... The fact that its one piece which has the base that fits in the entire cup holder and rest on the area just behind the e-brake provides extra sturdiness. It doesn't feel awkward putting up or putting down the e-brake and the little cubby in front and in rear are still usable and accessible. Seatbelt use is also not obstructed. While as I was at the dealer I sat in a Pc2, if you extend the OEM armrest, this one will sit about the same.

    The one I had from amazon I felt afraid to lean on it as you could hear it crackle with any amount of pressure. That one also stuck out to far so e-brake use was not normal. I found myself putting it up or sticking my hand underneath. Not a natural feeling. This one also has more padding. I will be taking a road trip this weekend so I'll report comfort use.

    Hahaha, yes without the Pc2 price tag.... Next Cruise Control.... Depending on the $$... Fingers crossed... But for the armrest, I think one of the must haves, can't beat $50 and its OEM like in terms of color... Once it was installed it looks like its always been there. Matches really well

    Okay, so during the road trip and about 56 miles into, the coin holder... no go... I will be lining it with felt... I could hear the change in the holder rattling down the highway it was starting to annoy... Other than that, seems comfy so far... Will keep you all posted during the rest of the trip... 200 more miles lol...
