Can you or someone else here say more about the "matrix center armrest dual lid?" Don't know what it is or where to find out about it. When I searched the forums for that topic, the post here is the only one offered.Thanks.

Welcome to lil girl.This thread has also mentioned the center armrest. I'd be interested in this as well, as it is one fault I find with my 2006 Vibe. The center armrest is just a bit too low for my elbow to rest on when the seat is positioned right for me. Has anyone else had this problem, or found a fix?Wayne

welcome....im sure your just waiting for the taller consol armrest.......i bought mine from Pams Auto.....i was lucky and it shipped with a center consol power outlet also....i did however have to pay approximatly $60.00 for it....but IMO it was well worth it....i just looked it up on Pams Auto it looks like they have a 2004 console..which should have the taller armrest dual compartment...if im correct...not 100% sure.....another way to find them is to check the junkyards....for wrecked or damaged pontiac vibes, and dont forget to check the Toyota Matrix's since they have them also.......heres the link to Pams Auto...you have to do a lil browsing....http://www.pamsauto.com/pm-199....aspxor you could go test drive a older vibe or a matrix with one in them and just switch them out....just kidding...i just remember someone saying that one time...
