I have a base model 2005 van , it did not come with an inside armrest ,

Anyway is there a simple way of doing this , maybe with parts from a junkyard seat ?
if so are the brackets or mounting holes on the stock seat frame ?

If you happen to have pictures that would be great

Thanks

 

Get the brackets from the junkyard seat and if the mounting holes aren't there, use a drill and make them yourself.

 

Forget that. Just change the seat. Four bolts.

 

I doubt I will find that nice of a drivers seat at the junkyard ,

thats why I am hoping the factory one comes off with a few bolts......

 

I'm sure there are 2019 model year vans getting written off by insurance companies this year. The problem is shipping. Expensive. I bet if I go to ebay I will find a seat.

In craigslist, there is usually a van or two getting parted out where I live.

 

I did some seat swapping in the Camaro. Most years are interchangeable as long as they are GM. Only problem w/boneyard seats, they almost always NEED a good cleaning. Assuming you find one in good condition.
