Still looking for arm rests for a Trident Empty Still looking for arm rests for a Trident

Post by p groombridge Tue Jul 28, 2015 5:35 pm

I've been looking since March for arm rests for driver and passenger armrests for our Trident.  Someone told me that I could get them online and I've looked and looked but can't find any.

I have also tried contacting VW Commercials with no luck.

Ideally I would like to find a secondhand / breaker dealer but they seem to be few and far between.

I had armrests on my previous van (Trophy) and found them really comfortable.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

One (only one) on Ebay for T4 right now, ends in 14 hrs.

there is also a pair of captains seats from a VW conversion complete with amrests. Maybe worth asking seller if he would remove arms or maybe the seats would suit you..

I had to buy captain seats as I wanted the arm rests, even if I could have found arm rests for my seats, the seats were not fitted with the supports inside to take them, so no option but to buy the T4 Captain seats, I then had the original covers put on to the captain seats, the armrests were a different pattern  no problem as I have had them recovered.

Who did that for you Daisy? Was it expensive?

It was a local auto trimmer that swopped the covers over to tide me over until I could afford to have the refurbishment done, the standard seats were not made to take armrests. VWCaptain seats are not cheap , tablet has its own way of spelling gŕrrrrr
