Making a armrest out of wood never entered my mind! Great idea.... Of course, being a retired carpenter, I have had plenty enough of woodworking these last 49 years! So I went to pic a part and got a pair out of a Toyota (maybe it was a Honda?) Fairly simple and similar to the ones that were fitted to TF trucks. I had to pay 10 bucks though... There were some holes already there from a PO. So I put the armrests over them. They work good.
