Rear Seat Armrests - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Gonna gut the blazer interior next week to install body mounts, sound insulation, new carpet, etc. The armrests on the rear seat will look pretty ratty after all that. Are there kits to re-upholster the armrests? Should I do anything else while the interior is out?

I ordered replacements from one of the vendors

Repops are available, but only in black. Not sure if you can spray black ones a different color. New ashtrays are also available.

This is a relatively new item so put a "wanted to buy" in the parts board and you will get replies from those who have and can give you some info on price, quality, etc. With the interior gutted. I would make sure to put a good coat of protective paint on the floor especially in the front where it slopes to the edges. I use POR15 then cover it with the matching vehicle cover. This will prevent any external rust from happening ---like when it rains with the top off!! Good luck--Huck
