Purpose and function in the centre console

The presented armrest is a component from the Console parts group, designed specifically for the central part of the second-generation Ford C-Max interior. Mounted on the centre tunnel, it provides support for front passengers, improving arm positioning ergonomics while driving and access to controls in the console. The properly contoured design provides stable support while not restricting access to the gear lever, parking brake, or storage compartments within the console. As a result, the armrest supports the convenience of using the interior without interfering with the factory equipment layout.

Material and finish

The upper part of the armrest is finished in black leather, which allows for consistency with the typical dark interior decor of the Ford C-Max Mk2. The leather surface is pleasant to the touch and provides adequate friction, so the hand does not slip while driving. The choice of material facilitates easy cleaning – standard leather care products allow for maintaining an aesthetic appearance for a long time. At the same time, the leather withstands typical operational loads well, such as frequent contact with clothing or temperature changes inside the vehicle.

Benefits of using the original armrest

• Factory fit to the geometry of the Ford C-Max Mk2 centre console.
• Consistent, black leather finish, in line with the character of the interior.
• Improved ergonomics and driving comfort thanks to stable arm support.
• No need for centre tunnel modifications when the part is correctly selected.
• Possibility of an aesthetic replacement of a worn or damaged factory armrest.

Selection and installation of the component

To ensure proper fitment with the centre console, it is worth verifying the compatibility of the part with the specific equipment version of the Ford C-Max Mk2. The original element from the Console parts group allows maintaining the factory line of the tunnel, without play or tension that could appear when using universal replacements. During installation, it is recommended to follow the disassembly sequence of the original console elements and use the factory mounting points. Thanks to this, the armrest works stably after installation, does not generate unwanted noises, and does not negatively affect the operation of other components within the centre tunnel. If you are planning a comprehensive repair or upgrade of the centre console area in your Ford and need other elements from the same group, such as tunnel housings, control panels, or additional storage modules, check the available parts in the Ford Console parts category.
