Default ouch!! broken arm "rest"

Broke my arm rest again. Where can I get new parts? I only need the small square piece. The dealer only sells the whole arm rest, $800!! Is there a salvage yard source that anyone knows of? Let me know.

I have a 1998. It is the driver side arm rest. Ieed the aluminium square piece that attaches the arm rest to the upright.

Default That's exactly what broke on ours! (m)

I have a search running on ebay.de to find A8 armrests. There is an ecru one available now! I need black. They rarely show on US e-bay. Salvarge yards (search our archives; shokan.com among others) will sometimes have them. Also check out car-parts.com.

I need to ask car-parts.com.

SKIRACER,
I need the square aluminium piece that comes out of the armrest and inserts into the armrest upright. I don't have a part number. It's the square piece that has a hole it it for the long bolt to go through.

Look at the exploded parts diagram in my above post- do you need #10, #15, or a different part?
