Miata MX-5 MX5 armrest extension

thingiverse

I found a page on adding padding to the console lid. When I finished I realized how nice it would be to extend the armrest. I found a foam stadium seat at Wally World for $7. The foam is a nice density for an armrest. I am far from an expert in 3d modeling. I do the best I can. I mostly use 3d builder. The model is not perfect. I figure it will be covered, texture painted, or printed with fuzzy surface. The idea is to pad and cover the lid, then screw the lid on from the underside. I printed a prototype and realized if you lift the lid, you can access the power window switches. In that case, a hinge would work instead of screws. https://revlimiter.net/mods/armrest.php
