We'll step y'all through that it's pretty easy, I was gonna direct you to the search but I found this in three clicks!

And there are pictures

 

I think that SS auto has the armrest, 5 spd doesn't.

Somebody will correct me.

 

That is my understanding also. I have 5-speed, no armrests. The pic RF2 posted on page 2 of this thread shows armrests and auto.

 

I don't think any of the 2010 SS seats had armrests, auto or 5 speed. But, then again the 2010's all had the performance seats so that could be why.
Not 100% on this, so correct me if I'm wrong.

The OP mudbilly said he would put his LT armrests on if needed. Only problem there is that they wouldn't be a "match" material wise. Pretty sure the SS seats with armrests had armrests with material to match the unique SS seat material.

 

I am not concerned about the material, I think I can get a local shop to make these with a close enough match, or complimentary color.

It looks like I can swap over my passenger side LT armrests, because it is attached via the plastic assembly that also is used to let the seat fold down/forward.

But on the drivers side, there would have to be a threaded female connection on the side of the seat to bolt that one on. If it is there, I could figure out a way of getting through the fabric and finishing the opening. So I guess what I really need to know is if there is an attachment point already on the side of the seat.

I do see the armrests in RF's post, so now I just need to confirm that the 2010 seats have this available.

That is if I go with those. I am still pretty torn between the solid black and the red highlights. Neither of these sets are perfect, and I am dealing by email pics, so it is hard to tell how they will clean up. I found another set in Oklahoma, waiting to hear back from them on quality and shipping.

 

On my 2010 performance drivers seat, all I feel is foam in that area. I pushed on the fabric in that area and never hit anything solid. I could push in about an inch to inch and half.
Don't think there's any armrest bolt up place made into my seats.

 

thanks.

 

Yes my seats came out of a red 2008 SS auto.

 

Well, I gave up looking for SS seats, at least for the time being. I couldn't find any that were in nice enough shape, or close enough to go see. So, I opted for replacing the foam in the drivers, Which I hope makes my butt not get so uncomfortable. Like I think I mentioned, I have 227,000 miles in the seat, and drive 50 miles each way to work & back every day.

I won't know till Monday if it made a difference, The old foam didn't really look that bad, but it was sunk som in the saddle and it seemed to be softer.

Thanks for all the advice, help, and a special call out to the poster that has the thread on re-doing the seats upholstery. It help make me decide to try and do this myself. Once he said that you didn't have to take everything apart to do it.

 

Ride comfy, now!
