    Sorry if this is a dumb question.
    Just in case anyone else has the same stupid question...it DOES fit the 2020 Mirage. haha
    Posting pictures for reference.

    If anyone from Canada is interested, I got it from Amazon here:

    I received the parts to do this but I need a bit clarification below. Does anyone know what it means?

    The screen shot below said

    Step 1 �� 3mm

    Step 2 �� 9mm

    And would the drill bits that I currently have from another screen shot below too small? I can’t tell which is which since the metric is different? I see 3/16, 5/24, and such. Nothing about 3mm and 9mm drill bit.

    The armrest I bought for my 2017 fit just fine without the need to drill holes in my console. I suggest trying it first without drilling holes and using screws.

    I think they have you drill a 3mm pilot hole in the 1st step to make it easier to start the 9mm drill in the 2nd step. According to this site https://www.ginifab.com/feeds/cm_to_inch/ 3mm is close to 1/8" & 9mm is ~3/8". Hope this helps!!!
    I didn't know what to do, so I didn't do anything

    I just keep in my (warped) mind that 1 mm is roughly 0.040". So 3 of them suckers is 0.120". Now if the end goal is to get to 9 millymeaters, and 3 millymeaters is just a pilot hole, assuming that's correct (just a pilot hole), the exact size of the pilot hole is not important. However, it should be half or less than the final targeted hole size. The smaller the easier, especially if there's a center-punch. Your pilot hole is just a really nice center punch for your final sized dribit.

    9 times 40 is 360, minus bout 4 or 5 (since it's really .03937), is about 355 or so. So the target hole is ~0.355" Just did the math, it is 0.354". Now to convert that to 16ths in your tool set. Does that set have an 11/32nds?

    If not,

    5/16ths is 0.3125" (7.9 millymeaters)
    6/16ths is 0.375" (9.5 millymeaters)
    11/32nds is 0.34375 (8.7 millymeaters).

    I recommend going and getting some dribits made in millymeaters.

    See how warped my mind done is?

    The install went well. Without the attached-skinny armrest obviously.
