There's one issue with the factory armrest though. It's designed for left hand drives!!!! The curved bit at the front meant for the driver to be sitting on the left of it so it doesn't get in the way of gear changes.

I've seen an armrest for the 206 on eBay once and this had a leather top part rather than Peugeot's plastic.

I haven't seen the one sold through Australian Pug dealers as yet, but I can't imagine Peugeot making an armrest JUST for right hand drives when they can't even customise the windscreen wipers for RHD!

Well, I collected and installed my armrest today. Interestingly, as Omak suggested it is exactly the same as the one pictured in the LHD (see first post - Danish?) car (in that the instep remains on the left hand side of the car). So, I guess Peugeot didn't bother to make a mould for RHD cars.

The only comment I have to make is that it sits about an inch or so higher than I would've liked it to and there's no way you can really cut it down.

Oh well, at least I have somewhere else to stash stuff like sunnies, coins, etc...

By the way, the part number was 9652YN.
