Custom fitted armrest for CRX
I went to a local junkyard today and bought a armrest from a 92-95 sedan. It only cost me $7 :D. I had to do some handy work for it to fit properly and it only took about 45 minutes and a extra $2 for paint.
Tools used:
Solder Gun
Plastic I chopped off from the armrest
Sand paper and a block
Duck tape (To hold the pieces in place while soldering)
Pliers to hold the plastic
Wire cutters (To chop the plastic into strips)
Metal saw
Paint
Pictures:

Chopped the old piece to have it fitted right.

Fits neatly
How it looks
Drying up as of now
It will be painted black and installed tomorrow.

The link in your sig doesn't seem to work...I guess I could search for it though. Even though I believe I've already seen it.
