OK this was the easy install only 2 screws. I have all the photos and am posting them now. The Toyota part # 58905-02210-B1 Retail price of $98.37 and wholesale price of $78.70. This is worth the money. The install took less than 3 minutes

I have recently went from my 03 Vibe GT to a 05 Vibe, and I honestly miss the "dual arm-rest".I have dug everyone online but I cant find anyone that sells them. Even the links in posts gives no results.Are my only 2 options Dealer or Junk Yard now a days?(ps: Ive looked on ebay and there are no auctions to date.)

how much did the dual center armrest cost if you don't mind asking? I see that you are trying to get hem involved with our site and that would be great with the discount, but just curious to buy outright.

To purchase it outright it would be around $100 dollars at the local dealer. I think they charged somewhere around $80.00, but there was no tax or shipping for me in Michigan.The price for the same lid for the link that was posted by the earlier in is thread was $76.xx, but with tax and shipping it came out to be more expensive. I am also in Michigan so had to pay for the sales tax, but even if I didn't shipping was like $13.00 which made it to be more expensive.

Found it salvaged from a '03 Matrix XRS for 50$CDN, like new condition. The guy had a hard time finding it. seems the XR did not had this dual lid or it was an option back then.Fits great and way much more comfortable now!

Picked up a dual armrest today from a salvage yard. Got it plus a front-left roof-rack cover for only $17.

Hey Chuck,I was looking to do this soon. What year did you get the part off of? Vibe or Matrix? I was going to research what to ask for from my salvage yard, but if you don't mind sharing....Thanks,Edit: Nevermind, just read the post above - '03 Matrix was one model.

Looks the same as the dual one that came in my '09 Vibe. I may have to look into this though for my wife's '05 Rav4.
