    Arm rests on a TDV6

    So the ONLY thing that I miss from my D4V8 (apart from the exhaust note) are the bloody arm rests

    I’ve had no luck searching ... does anyone know of these are retro-fittable without pulling apart the whole seat?

    Hi Oldsalt. Do you have side airbags in those seats. I am wanting to upgrade the seats in my 2014 poverty pack but was not aware that I could actually do that because of the airbags. My wife complains about the lack of lumbar support in the passengers seat. Arm rests would be great to have as well? If they do have air bags may I ask what they are worth and what the seat model is? Many thanks.

    I don't want to rain on your parade, but unless your original seats did not have airbags, then you can't replace them with non airbag seats.
    Ask me how I know!!!!!
    If you have found compatible airbag seats, with armrests, then I would love to know because I would love a set.

    Likewise didn't some Discovery models have arm rests - why not put them in with your current seat covers put on so they then match the rest of your interior.

    My RRS has the arm rests and I never use them - not comfortable, in not the best position even though that are adjustable - just more hassle than they are worth - the cubby lid is a far better arm rest.

    A dude around the corner from me fitted arm rests to his D4 not long ago. From memory they were out of a classic (could be wrong) and he had them re-covered to match the existing seats.

    I’m betting he also did it to his D3 as well.
