how do I remove armrest??

There is a Allen head bolt under the plastic cap.

On my 2008...the bolt is a hex head....
Cajun / Al |
Good info, I would like to modify my arm rest to set a bit higher, when cruising.
|
Can anybody unbolt one of their armrests and take a picture of exactly how each component is installed! I changed my seats to all leather and now the armrests feel very loose!!! I know there are two washers and a spacer! PLEASE HELP!!! Thanks, I have a 2007. So anybody with a 2006-2008 could do this for me. Thanks.

Check out this thread. I had the sloping armrest problem too (as did others). So I did this write-up. Don't remember what the order was for the washers though.

plastic washer, arm rest, washer, washer, bolt. |
Just to make sure:
bolt, flat washer, curved washer, armrest, plastic washer (Going through hole in armrest), Seat?? Does that sound accurate? |
Thank you by the way!

Mine slopes down too.
Are we able to reinstall the armrest at a higher angle? EDIT - Just saw GCarp's writeup so yes we can yay! I actually injured my intercostal and/or abdominal muscles with all the driving I have done in the past 3.5 months. :wtf: Now I need to keep my right elbow jammed against my ribs while I drive until it heals. I'm 5'8" and I just can't get comfortable for long trips (500-1100 miles) in the damn SS driver seat. I drove my Talon back from Denver (~2000 miles) in 48 hours so I know I can do long haul. This buggy needs a telescoping steering wheel to be comfortable for us shorter guys. On the other hand, I moved the seat allllll the way back when I was driving tonight and I couldn't hold the skinny pedal at speed lol. These cars were made for tall folks or short folks with long arms. |

HEY
My drivers side armrest is starting to crack from my pointy elbow. Are the two armrests interchangeable, as in could I put the drivers side on the pass side so the unsightly crack will be facing the floor? I would assume they are but, you never know. |
Zombies!
