Interior/Exterior I installed in the MINI Cooper S R53 Euro center armrest

Nice job! I did mine a couple winters ago, which killed my fingers in my freezing garage. And I broke the plastic ring that holds the hand brake skirt in place, which was expensive to replace. It was worth it, though I need to figure out how to stop it from opening all the time.
FYI, that's not the Euro armrest. The Euro one looks like this:

Nice install. I am going to do the same in my 2003. I have a question though. In the 7th pic, what is the armrest bolted to? Does mini make a bracket that fits into the 2004 bolts? Also, what is the bracket in pics for and 5 for?
This might help me a lot when I go to buy parts for myself.

I got mine as a retrofit kit and you have to replace the bracket that it mounts to. The old one is in pic 4 and the new one is in pic 5. The kit came with instructions and all the parts you need. I bought it from someone on the forum, so I'm not sure what the whole kit costs new.
And then what do these 3 bolts attach to? Because in all the pics before it there is not one bracket with holes that far apart. I feel like there are a few missing steps here.
I mean seriously, I have everything except the mounts that apparently don't exist. I would be extremely grateful if someone could give me some parts numbers or a link to buy those brackets. Having no armrest is seriously starting to suck.
