Default 1990 Prelude armrest in CRX ?

Since it's so bloody hard to find a crx armrest, has anyone used a 1990 Prelude armrest ?
is it still available at dealers ?

Ive had 4 armrests in my time. I just gave one away for free to my buddy John becuase he wanted on for his CRX. Just go and look at junk yards. Its easy to find them if you look in every CRX and Civic there. You can find one in a week if youre willing to drive.

WTF?!?! When I try to go to that link it wants me to sign in, so since I don't belong, I register. The registration fails and says my email address has been banned. I contact the admin and my email gets bounced back. I've never even been to that site. WTF am I blocked?

heh hes linking probably to my post over there on crxcommunity, click the link in my sig for the same images.

also the guy "vtecsyndrome" just made a build thread this week using the same techinique as me on the EK armrest, and his actually came out nicer too, his cuts were cleaner.

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread/2021995

that is his thread, about 1/2 way down the first page shows the images, it uses factory mounting holes in the floorboard, so no fear of rusting or making un needed holes. as long as you do a clean job on the paint and the slight dremeling, it looks factory.
