HI, I have got a couple of E32 front arm rests that I am going to fit in the front of my cab. I was wondering if any one has done this and could offer some advice on the fitting.

Don't know if they are like the e30 ones. The ones I have bolt on to the seat with 2 bolts and there is a button on the end which you press so you can move it up and down. i have no camera at the mo

Are you talking about the thin narrow ones that you can tilt to two different angles. The depress button is at the front of the armrest?

I suppose it all depends upon the fitting brackets I would have thought.

I may be wrong but i think that there are mounting points on the frames of all E30 seats. If you remove the seat back you should be able to see if they are there or not. If they are it's just a case of drilling the holes through.
