Armrest Doobesarry Nuts

Post by jor »

Sometimes the old plastic nuts that hold on the armrests shatter. Anyhow, I found a replacement for these at Ace. Here's some photos for future reference.

The only thing you'll need to be aware of is that the factory pieces (whether they're plastic or metal) allow the screws to go up/in, at an angle, where the hardware store pieces won't. I don't know if that would make much of a difference when mouting the armrest.

Mine didn't have any armrests when I bought it and like I said, I used the plastic license plate inserts and they worked are working very well.
