  • Caravelle armrests?

    Hey ya, just bought a 2002 Caravelle that I’m gunna keep original but need a couple of grey captains chair armrests - are they available anywhere? Or are they like rocking horse shit in which case I’ll have to figure out how to repair the adjustment mechanism…

    Try Gumtree and eBay.
    They were being advertised this morning.

    I have a set that I'd saved for Jim so could be available.

    Back on dry land next week.

                So I live in NZ, the costs quoted for shipping parts in seem crazy! Decided that I need to fix it - I’ve pulled one of the armrests apart and an internal lug is broken off… think I’ve fixed it by drill and tapping it and locktighting a bolt in? Fingers crossed…
                Drivers seat base foam needs replacing / fixing so that’s next on the list…

                    Hello.

                    My drivers armrests were damaged - seems like this is a regular design issue, and various suppliers offer a repair/reinforcement kit, and should be a mandatory fitment, e.g.

                    https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/143255652...fODylo_LIcsyw3

                    The same applies to the pedal box reinforcement bracket. Try eBay UK

                    New front seat foam bases are also available if you can't source or make a suitable replacement locally
