Looks nice, but quite pricey… what other gen 2 parts are you planning ?

 

[workpermit]

Agree - looks like a good product, but too expensive for what it is.

Looks cool. Have a suggestion for a product: The doorpanels are quite hard and uncomfortsble to place the elbow on while driving. How about a support for this?

 

[Navihaus]

Looks cool.
I have a right-hand drive Yaris.
Personally, I have no need for this part.

Ordered!

Agreed, it is on the expensive side but right handers absolutely kill my left knee.

Looks OE and hopefully the price reflects the quality.

Please report back once received and fitted. I'd be interested if it was more reasonably priced, but as you say, if it reflects the quality...

I'm sure it will look and feel decent, just depends how durable it is.

I'll report back with photos.

I got a sore knee after track days with high-G corners.

I ended up cutting the gel wrist rest from a mousepad and taping that to the car for the track, works a treat!

 

[lovechild59]

Well, it's in!

Quality is decent and it does look standard. Whilst fitting, it occured to me that my knee seems to rest more on the top of the centre console (I am quite tall), so hopefully this is deep enough to take the brunt of the pressure and move my knee cap away from the top edge.

Not had a chance to drive it yet. Will report back how it performs when I do.

Looks great! Let us know how you get on.
How does it attach? Just some double sided?

Went out yesterday and it does help. Like I said earlier, my knee rests on the top edge of the centre console but the pad is deep enough that it does help hold it off slightly. I am going to get a bucket seat, so that should help straighten my legs up a bit and the higher side bolsters keep them from splaying out so much.

Yep, just stuck on with tape.

All in all it does the job.

Pros:
It's effective, although could be slightly better for my size/position
Looks good/OE
Seems well made

Cons:
Slightly thicker would probably be a bit better for me but no doubt different for different people
Might look better if the pad covered the whole panel to give it less of a stuck on look
Cost

I needed something and this seemed the best solution with keeping as standard a look as possible. Whether that's worth £130 is up to the individual.

Obviously no interest to me but could be worth contacting the company for a forum group buy if there was the interest?
