Default '35 arm rest location



Would anyone be able to provide these dimensions on the location of '35 arm rests.

Seems like I asked this in the past; but I can't find the post anywhere.



Thanks

You didn't say which body style, given your avatar is a 3 window coupe.....Maybe this "might help"???? Sorry for blurry, enlarged on my scanner. Also your angle looks to be slightly more than the photo to me?

Have you an armrest and the bracket? there is a bracket that affixes to the armrest, and that bracket hooks through a slot in the inner door frame. If you fit this assembly up to the door without the door panel fitted, you will readily see the correct position....

I was trying to do some planning with removing the door panel.

Is this the slot you are referring to? I kind forgot about the hook thing.

Yeah, Rich, That is the slot I meant. You have the 'hook thing'? that screws through the door panel into the armrest. If you place the hook, by itself, into the slot, you'll be able to measure where the two holes need to be punched through the door panel.
