Guess who broke their latch yesterday.... ***Purchased a new armrest lid for the avant for the grand sum of £10.90 off the old ebay. Quality is also suprising good for a non gen part. Due to the amount these latches brake, i was unsure whether my lid was original or not so i went for a more textured grainy look the match the seats. Its just a shame it looks so good!

I wonder the same thing! When i retrofitted my armrest, the one i bought came with a broken latch, so just replaced it for about £1.50ish and never had an issue...how did you manage that chap, I'm still on my original 2006 one......maybe it was a substandard copy you got from ebay.
best treat yourself to a new oem one now.
My new lid is still goung stong and looks great, maybe irs time for an upgrade!Guess who broke their latch yesterday.... ***
Believe it or not just caught it absent mindedly and ‘ping’ it went. Even my best carbon fibre/epoxy work wouldn’t put humpty together again. Fleabay it is matehow did you manage that chap, I'm still on my original 2006 one......maybe it was a substandard copy you got from ebay.

After the heartbreak of a busted armrest latch I decided to console myself with a set of shiny H&R spacers...it’s christmas after all
Both! And yes poor show on the lack of punningWhen i saw console i was expecting a centre armrest related pun!
Excellent work on the spacers, front or rear?
Rob, what's wrong with the Pioneer?
No way is the JVC going to be better than the Pioneer in terms of sound quality.
Have you seen the Xtrons units which look like the RNSE? They have CD inputs and app based stuff too as they’re android powered. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/273324092643To be honest the pioneer is great and has work perfectly since fitting , I was looking for an upgrade that included some more app etc based functions and this looked to be a good choice.
What I have just realised is that I play a lot of cd's and the JVC doesn't have a cd …..so means i'll need to move all my cd stuff onto other tech, maybe sending it back without opening it now, blast......
With that amount of damage to the front cross member i would have thought the grill would be smashed to bits, are you sure it wasn't already damaged perhaps before your ownership.
Perhaps, although looking at replacement cross members already have a pre formed crease at the each corner front.
I’m surprised at the resilience of the Quattro - if the bump had been too much hard the front would’ve crumpled and airbags would have deployed, making it a write off.
