Lightbulb Armrests are adjustable

I have been driving an FJ Cruiser for 2 months now. I didn't realize until my wife pointed it out that the driver and passenger seat armrests are adjustable for various angles.

It pays to read and reread the user manual. The armrest adjustment procedure is mentioned briefly in the owner's manual, but I had skipped over that section.

Re: Armrests are adjustable

glad you can admit it... everyone finds something on the rig like that... just usually don't admit it... here is a link to a couple of other good manual you might want to review as well.

Repair manuals and bulletins

Re: Armrests are adjustable

Congrats on the FJ and the finding out that the arm rest is adjustable!

Did you know there is a rear cargo lamp? I had no idea untill someone pointed it out, at that point I've had the FJ for over 2 1/2 years.
