Notchback/Fastback rear arm-rests

Post by DevonNotch » 31st January 2022 - 4:52pm

Has anyone got them fitted or has photos of them fitted? I've got a pair to fit and they don't sit right on the rear quarter panel - am assuming there was extra bolster material on rear quarter panels from the factory with the rear armrest option....

My 1972 Base Model 1600A Variant ( Estate ) did not have Rear Armrests. They were only Factory Fitted to more Luxurious Models of the Type 3. So the set up of the Rear 1/4 Interior Trim Panel was different for the ones with / without Rear Armrests.
