adding arm rests to door cards

[MINI_BUS]

I'd just advise checking out your local breakers/scrapyard and seeing what might fit.. anything off a car with a flar doorcard should work, and then its up to you to find it in the right colour! I've seen Honda Accord door pulls and arm rests incorparated into beetle doors and they seemed to work quite well.. maybe one to look out for? If I come across anything I'll let you know!

Think i've seen a T25 with E30 BMW armrests on the doors fitted looks quite good

U can get em from early caravelles, i did recently tho i'm not putting em down low, putting up high so i can rest me arm on it!

Hi PEET,
This what you mean, had these on my bus for ages, they work really
well, makes m/way cruisin more comfortable,
Very easy to do , just screw um to to door, i found that the top of the door
handle to be the right height.

That's EXACTLY what i mean!!! Tho i saw a pair goinf for £25 on ebay the other day!!!
Still glad someone else has done it too!

I fitted the same and they were lower in the door.

I took the door cards off and found ready made holes to fit.

I bought the square fixings and bolts from VW and they are fixed solid.

If you fit in any other postion you may only be fixing to the door card.

IMHO

I got a set off ebay for £5 delivered ! bought fixings from VW and door cards have marks already for them hols on doors also if you want them higher you will have to screw into door .
