It is known as the center armrest. usually folds down depending on the user’s preferences. often includes a storage compartment, and sometimes even cup holders. Some also provide space for controls for secondary vehicle functions.

Sometimes one or two armrests can be attached to each individual seat. Which is commonly seen in minivans and some SUVs. Often, an additional armrest is built into the car door, often as part of the door handle.

While the rear armrest, which sits between the rear seats, folds down to make use of the center (third) seating position. In some designs that place particular emphasis on occupant safety. Including some Volvo models, armrest can be used as a child seat along with a specially adjustable seat belt.

Why are used armrests and used car parts so important?

Make sure all used auto parts you buy are tested and fit for your vehicle. Do this with your VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) or any OEM part numbers.

Ask for photos of a particular used armrest or the location of a junkyard or location of vendors.

If you need to use a carrier for shipping, please tell the recycling yard your zip code so they can give you an estimate of how much it will cost to ship your used auto part.

You can also try to get a warranty on the parts you order. Sometimes they can get damaged during shipping or not work at all. Remember that buying original parts for your car will be better than a replacement part that may not fit, look or function properly.
