Looks like my armrest was damaged during the last MOT. This is mine now with some cable ties preventing any further splitting of the arms that form the hinge.
But it feels like there should be more to it. Does anyone have an exploded diagram from a parts list or willing to post a pic of theirs?

I could share you pictures if you want.
What kind/location/detail ?

Thanks, but if you could just compare my pic to your armrest & advise if there are any more parts that would be great. But having dug around some more, it seems as though there aren't. Luckily AliExpress have a cheap replacement, so I'll probably just go with that.Le_Combattant wrote: Sat Nov 02, 2024 5:03 pm I could share you pictures if you want.

For anyone interested, the Chinese knock-off arrived to day. It's covered in textured vinyl rather than the fabric of the original, but matches the bottom half quite well. It's a little bit more flimsy but for less than £8 delivered, I can live with that.

Re: 6C Armrest Help Please
My original one was made of fabric and I changed it for one from Aliexpres with fake leather, it is 11 years old and is still in perfect condition.
It makes a little noise when I rest my arm on it, it did that since new, now it is part of the endearing sounds of my 6R.
I remember the cost of the armrest cover made of completely false/fake leather was reasonable for any pocket, in other words, it couldn't be cheaper.
