Armrests

Hey Dudes.

I got some Parts under the ol' x-mas tree this year, one of them being a set of armrests from LMC. My truck doest have armrests, nor did it have holes where they would have existed. I figured there would be mounting holes underneath the door panel, but I figured wrong. Has anyone installed armrests in a truck that didn't have them before? Thanks dudes.

Re: Armrests

LMC has a template you can get, I would call them and tell them you got the parts as a gift and need the template.

Re: Armrests

I'm actually about to delve into this little situation shortly. I swapped some custom trim doors on to my swb, so I will take pics of what is in there and what i needed to get the arm rests right.
