Taller Armrest Standard on '07?

Post by new05vibeowner »

I was looking at the Pontiac website, and noticed that the interior pics of the Vibe show the taller, pre-05 armrest/console cover.If anyone has an '07 already, can you confirm/deny that the change was made?
Mods: 04 center armrest, 04 Matrix AM/FM/CD/Cassette, Electrochromatic rear view mirror w/compass, GM hood protector, Ventvisors on doors and moonroof, one-touch close moonroof. added 12v outlet in console, Goodyear TripleTred tires, Sirius satellite radio.

We have one or two people who build Vibes/trix'es around here - I didn't hear there were any changes to the interior.If so, that's exciting news... I may just have to test drive one of them.

I believe the pics the for all years show the higher armrest.I don't think they've updated the interior shots since the 03. At least, they hadn't for the 06.

At least, they hadn't for the 06.That's my vote... Automakers like to recycle the same pictures over and over and over again. If there's a change dramatic enough, perhaps they'll edit the old picture and put in the new stuff. heh But an armrest, the probably think that nobody would ever know the difference so why bother.

I have an O7 and it has the shorter armreset, I am currently looking for an 03-04 armrest to replace it.

So the 07 Trix taller armrest should still be able to replace the 07 Vive armrest? ThanksBooker
