    Suggestions on Center Console

    So the one thing I have noticed that I really would like to add to my Mirage is a center console as I do alot of highway mileage and like to have an armrest, however not sure what the best option is.

    Some light research has informed that you can in fact purchase an OEM one from the dealer, however they come with a hefty price tag. Appears there are some aftermarket versions on Amazon and Ebay but unsure of the quality or fitment.

    Can anyone suggest a good solution for a 2017 SEL Hatch?

    Thanks in advance

    Go OEM. Everything else will need to be jerry-rigged with varying degrees of success.

    I bought 2 different arm rests for my Attrage and my mumīs Space Star. Both are for a Yaris P1
    and around 30-50 Euro from ebay. Both fit very good in the rear cupholder. Mine with a little bit of foam
    around ( 5 mm so it does not rattle ) and my mumīs without.

    My fixed 50 euro armrest

    I have the OEM center armrest, & it is quite small. You can't rest your elbow on it and grab the steering wheel at the same time. I would never spend money for one. The after market ones are much longer and seem way more useful to me.

    Several members have installed after market ones without issue.

    I got a $23 console and a $14 armrest cushion from Aliexpress. Total = $37 and the fit is fine. No rigging required. Tons of pictures in the other thread.
