Default 2017+ Center Console/Armrest in 2015?

Hey all! First post here. Is it possible to put the 2017+ center armrest (wrist wrest and cupholders) in a 2015 IS350 FSport awd? If anyone's done it, where would you get the part? Is it a straightforward, pop out, pop in install? I'd love to see pics as well. Thanks!

Bump. Anyone done this? I feel like I've seen it around somewhere. Let me know if you have!

it will work. small trimming needed on console for the new piece to snap into place.
Harness is plug and play.
Back button on the new console will do nothing but all other buttons will function.

Thanks for the info. Do you know which parts I'd actually need to buy to make this happen?

I have the same question. Even the exploded parts diagram to order parts for the 2017+ looks exactly like the 14-16 center console, so I'm having a hard time deciphering which parts are necessary. Doesn't help that pictures are rarely posted.

you would need the full console piece plus all the electronic components to make it work properly. I heard some people try to swap some of the electronic components from the 2014-16 into the 17+ console and the buttons were mapped incorrectly.

I purchased my full center console setup second hand on ebay.
