Armrest screw layout dimensions

Can anyone in the know tell me what the dimensions are for the armrest screw mounting holes? i.e the distance between each of the 2 screws

thanks

The arm-rest screws fit into nylon retainers that are wedged into two holes in the door inner panel. If you remove the inner trim panel you will see these holes roughly in-line with the lower of the inner door handle screws.
I can't get at my van right now to give more accurate details.

I've got armrests from a mk1 golf here (armrest and grab handle in one piece) and was wondering if the dimension for the holes were the same approx 170mm.

The grab handle part will most likely need chopping off

By the way, the holes in the door-card are already there but not cut through the vinyl. You may find they line up ok with the Golf ones.
