I did a search for Cup Holders.. looking for ideas for my K model and your pics popped up. Is that armrest you posted factory or something you put together?  Any details you could provide would be greatly appreciated.  I have not seen that before.

Bought the unit from Sporty's. Then I made a base from wood, attached it to the bottom of the unit and covered it in vinyl fabric I had left over from my interior. The base sits on the floor between the backseat and the emergency gear extension. The unit comes with options such as cup holder and extended armrest. The rear cup holder kind of supports on the rear seat. The extended armrest is removable. If I'm on a longer trip I put it on, if just local I use it as pictured. If I get a chance over the weekend I'll send you a few more pictures. I wouldn't trade it for a million bucks. Works great and actually creates some elbow space between the pilot and co-pilot.

Just what I'm looking for.  Sporty's may not carry it any longer.  I looked all over their web site.  Does it by chance have a manufacturers name or model number on it?

I'll see what I can come up with. I usually keep most of my receipts and such. I'll also get you the pics. I didn't get to the hanger over the weekend (rain/ice) so I get it for you as soon as possible.

Chris,..It's been darn cold and ice the last several days. I'm way overdue to check this out for you guys, but I'll try to get the info posted up this weekend. I did look at the online Sportys and did not see it anymore either. By the weekend for sure.

Tom -- I would be interested in knowing this information as well.

Hey guys..I didn't forget about the armrest. I looked all through my paperwork and receipts and can't find the Sporty's receipt (that's what usually happens when I do a file purge after 10 yrs). I'm 99% sure that's where I got it (Sporty's). I even spent some time looking through old emails and searching the web hoping someone might have some old posts about it or them. Can't find anything. I do think they called it a "Center Console Cockpit Organizer". I found some old web threads showing a bigger version they had.  There are no manufacturing stamps or brand recognition on the piece. I did finally get to the hanger and pulled it out of the plane and will forward a few pictures with measurements. I really don't think it would be hard to make something similar to it.

Just wanted to give both of you heads up..
