    Front seat armrests retrofit?

    Tried a search, couldn't find any obvious posts.

    Does anyone know if the 'non arm rest' front seats have the necessary bolt hole/threading to take a couple of arm rests if one finds them somehwere? Given the commonalities across the range, I'm hoping the answer's yes, but can't find any info out on the web...

    It’s not as simple as that but can be done. Search for detailed thread on Disco3 forum. I read it a few years back, can’t remember details. I’d expect it’s difficult to source just the arm rests locally but whole seats is easy enough.

    Thanks for that Scott - when you say easy to source seats, any pointers? I've had a look online, but only saw some pretty beat up rubbish and not much of it... (which got me thinking about this - I was planning to maybe buy a crap pair of seats and trash them, but keep the arm rests, which don't tend to wear as much as the squabs...)

    TRS in SA is where I got mine. Upgraded to electric c/w arm rests. There’s a recent thread on it in here.

    When asking TRS for a price, just be aware that depending on year and color, the price can be expensive. I got a quote for mine (black) and it was $400 dearer than what Scott was quoted. When questioned told fawn seats are harder to sell, so to move them on they are cheaper. Black everybody wants so they charge what they like.
