HELP! Rear center armrest cover broke.....
Hi,
The rear center armrest cover (lid) broke (the whole hinge) in my 2008 LS600hL Actually I noticed when I bought this vehicle used but I thought it would not be a big issue until I phoned around Lexus dealers in town and the repair cost would be CAD$5000....
I also found the parts online (http://www.lexuspartsnow.com/parts/l...-50B90-C1.html) But I don't know if I am capable of installing it.
Please advise if there's any other way around it to fix it?
Thank you so much in advance!

$250!? That would be wonderful! I will check it out on eBay and see if I could find one. The interior of my car is black. But I don't know how to take the old one off. Anybody here knows how?

I bought a whole center arm rest for $150 and just swapped out the hinge. This left me with a good upper arm rest cover and the lower portion to resell. You just have to look around for it. Here's one for $200.

I believe ebay has a service were the seller can ship in the US and they can then turn around and ship it to you. This listing has been on there for quite sometime, I bet the seller will work with you. Good luck!

Really!? I am not really an online buyer but I'm learning to be one. It seems online buying experience is better than I thought. I actually found this one instead and gave my best offer. Hopefully it goes well.
