Frequently asked questions

Will this centre console armrest lid fit my 3rd Gen Surf?

Yes. The Centre Console Armrest Lid is engineered as a direct replacement for the 3rd Gen Hilux Surf and 4Runner (185 series, KZN185 / VZN185 / RZN185 / KDN185, 1996-2002). It bolts onto the existing console base using the original hinge hardware.

Will it fit a 2nd Gen or 4th Gen Surf?

No. The 2nd Gen (N130, 1989-1995) and 4th Gen (2003-2009) Hilux Surf and 4Runner have differently shaped console bases. This lid is contoured specifically for the 3rd Gen console.

What colours match the factory 4Runner interior?

Two colour options match the OEM 3rd Gen interior trim — Grey (also called Moon Mist) and Oak (also called Tan / light brown). Pick the variant that matches your dash and door cards.

Is the lid padded or hard plastic?

Padded. The lid is constructed with a foam core and covered in a high-grade synthetic leather / vinyl that provides a comfortable armrest surface — not the hard plastic that some aftermarket replacements use.

Do I need any tools to swap the lid?

Only basic hand tools. Remove the hinge bolts holding your old lid to the console base, transfer the hinge hardware to the new lid, and bolt it back on. Install time is around 10 minutes.
