Thank you. Have a 2013 Abarth. Hated the armrest from day 1. Thanks too for showing how to pop the clip to then remove the armrest. My clip had rotated a little. But feeling around with a finger i came at the clip from below. Came right off. Lastly. Told my fiat parts department about your part. He took notes. Said he would recommend it
Nothing wrong with my arm rests other than I hate them. Finally decided to get rid of them and found this video on how to get them out. So easy wish I had looked sooner. Ordered your deletes and they arrived almost immediately LOL. Perfect fit. Can't thank you enough! Added so much space to my tiny interior. Love it! Wish I could post a pic here, so happy with the way it turned out.
Thank you, Chris! I purchased one, though I haven't installed it yet. I'm looking forward to being free of my broken armrest. It diminishes my beautiful 2013 Fiat 500.😞Your creation has saved me a lot of time trying to find a replacement, since they aren't manufacturing these anymore.
My car is a 2016. I bought your part on eBay and installed it. The part was much more narrow than the hole it's designed to go into. It didn't come close to staying in place and just sat hanging off the side of my seat at an angle. If I had I tried to use it as designed, it would have just fallen out from the vibration of driving down the road. I wrapped the end of the part with 3 layers of duct tape, and it fit snugly into place. I'm glad I bought it, and it's a big improvement over having a broken armrest. Anyone buying this part should know that you may need to wrap it with a lot of tape to make it usable. At least this was what I had to do.
Thanks for the feedback! I do random quality checks with my own cars, but it's possible a undersize plug shipped out, or your seat hole is worn out bigger than the average. Glad you made it work 💪
I bought the armrest delete. And the armrest came off really easy. However, there's a large metal nub that's sticking out so you can't insert the armrest delete into it. It would be nice if you could show how you removed that piece as well, you can see that piece separated from the seat around 12 seconds in this video.
Yep, same. I think at some point they flipped the pivot hardware. Mine is like yours, the "male" pin is on the seat and the "female" receiver is on the armrest.
I can't upload pic, but posted on the FB! I had to bore out the armrest attachment on my 2012. Used a 1/2" drill bit and it fits perfectly! Many thanks!
Seems hard to locate a gray set of armrest for my 2015 sport. I ordered this part and it took all of 10 seconds. Partcworked as advertised, thank you Chris.
I have a brown leather interior on my 2013 Fiat 500 Sport (the early type of armrest with the post sticking out after removal). By any chance, can you make them in brown instead of black?
Hey Chris: Something is wrong. Followed the link to order your part. Should have looked closer. Part has arrived and there is only one part. Not two like shown in your video. But worse, the delivered part looks very different from the part in your video. Again should have looked closer, the part that arrived looked like the one on the Bimmer link page. Can you help/advise.
Hey! If you haven't yet, please send me an email, and I'll help you sort it out! I make 2 different versions for the different seats on Fiat 500 models.
@@ChrisBuissonDIY Hi Chris. How do I send you my email. I checked your about page for your email. Am not a youtube expert so maybe I missed it. Not real comfortable posting my email here.
@@ChrisBuissonDIY Thanks for the ingenuity! Right now I have a piece of leather tape covering the hole. This will give the seat a really nice look. Will take before/after pics.
Hey! This means you have an early model seat, produced before 2013. I recently released a armrest delete for these models specifically, you can check them out on my store! Thanks 👍
Hey Chris, I received both of my arm rest delete caps, one was broken during shipping. Can you send me a replacement or do I have to buy another one? I did gorilla glue the broken piece so I can install it tomorrow. I did install one and I can say that it did install with good pressure when I slided it in. It looks like it will hold it place. Thanks

Hola a mi también me interesa saber
Same. How please.

Thanks for the video! Easily removed both arm rests, and purchases the delete plugs.

Funny, You show both Left and Right steering wheel cars. Way to cover our bases!
Thanks! It helped me a lot! 🙌
Just ordered one!

Are these for all models?
I have a 2015 sport
Sold. thank you.
Removed the armrest but there is a metal attachment stuck to where you placed the delete attachment. Any idea how to get that part removed?

I would love to purchase! I went to your store but can’t see it on there, any chance you copy the link on here?

Hey Ben, sorry about the shipping issue. Send me a message/email where you bought it and I'll get you a replacement asap! Thanks for your support 🙏
Will it work for my 2016 fiat 500e?
Yeah, should work fine! You can take the armrest off first and make sure it looks the same as the video and be sure 👍
Can I just buy one? Thanks
Hey thanks for the suggestion! I modified the listing so everyone can buy just one if they need. Hope that works for you!
You’re the boss! 🫶
Just placed my order. Were grtting ready to sell, cant justify paying $100 for an oem arm rest
Just ordered mine hate that broken armrest and I’m not willing to buy a new one.
Good work
