Centre armrest catch

Bodgit09 · Aug 21st, 2018, 07:50

Hi all,
Would I be correct in assuming that when you lift up the centre arm rest, it should lift up the middle tray as well? I think mine had a catch but it appears broken. Would I be correct?

Yes

In fact I didn't realise there WAS a "middle tray" for quite a while.

Cheers

Dave

That would be a yes then Dave ;-) ? Can you post a pic of what should be there please (anyone) so I can see if I can work out a better solution.

I didn't realise there was a catch, guess mine must be missing.
Can anyone post a picture of what the catch looks like pls?

There is a small plastic pin in the lid that holds the tray (bottom image)

Lid open with tray in up position

Tray in up position

Tray in down position

Pin that holds tray up

It's the pin that holds the tray up that is missing on mine. Bet it's a whole new tray job !!

Cheers

Just need a small Neodymium magnet, they're available pre-drilled, the're super strong and don't take up a lot of room. Fit with self tapper screw and use a similar size washer for other side. Don't use two magnets or you'll never get it opened
