Hi Folks In my trusty espace the rear seats and the middle row have holes in either side of them, which looks to me as if you can add arm rests to them, is this correct and if so where will i be able to purchase some. (with out paying dealer prices). thanks Savo Proud owner of a 2002 Race.

what is the German word for armrest
"Armlehne" - but I don't know if they use that word for the "captains chair" armrests, which is what I assume you are looking for ? - also, I only know about the front seats having these, - never heard about original armrests for the rear seats. But if you have the right skills, then I guess any armrest could me modified to fit, provided you can cut/bend/weld some kind of support, which could be fixed to the mentioned holes ? It will probably make it somewhat difficult to fold the seats fully - depending on the success of your design. You can regard that as a challenge! :-) /Lennart

It just so happens that i have seen an espace with these arm rests fitted....(only on six seats) .......ready for this guys. The arm rest is inserted into seat just like a key is inserted into a door, the arm rest has full movement as like the two front seats so folding the seats has no problem ( if the middle seat is not in place as anders said) to remove the arm rest you have to pull the arm rest out a little bit then push it down past its horizontal positon and the pull it out completely the same is done in reverse to put the arm rest back in. Clever people . Hope that helps. Trev (aka Savo)

I am a new member to this forum, so forgive any mistakes on my part until I get in the swing of things. I recently purchased a 2.2 dt Grande Espace, year of manufacture is 2000, and it came with arm rests fitted to the rear two seats. I didn't like them, and have removed them, as it made it very difficult for passengers, even small children to get between the seats, and the arm rests were a different colour to the leather seats in my espace. If you are still looking for some arm rests, they are a dark green colour if I remeber correctly, let me know.
