#vwcampervan #captainsseat #vanbuild
So I decided to fit some Armrests to make the van a bit more conformable on longer journeys, have a watch if you want to see how I got on.
Hi everyone, so sorry it's been so long but you should be able to see the armrests I used at the following eBay link ebay.us/K9ppld (referral) These fit the same seats I have as can be seen in the video. Have fun fitting
Have fun fitting and hope you found this vlog useful

    Awesome job! I recently got 2 armrests to install on my driver's seat and I notice the foam is moving a bit sideways on them. Are yours like that or the foam is firm on the rests?

    Thanks, so no mine don't seem to have that issue, although they don't seem the best design as the pads are quite narrow and I would have thought a few years down the line they may experience something similar to this..

    I'm not sure TBH, they come with brackets specifically for the VW, so i would say they aren't universal.. but if you got the brackets for your seat they might fit, but i can't say
