87 560 Arm Rest
I was wondering if the arm rest/door pull on 560s are the same for driver and passenger side. The driver side on my 87 is only the flat rest/pull without the arm peice that angles up to the latch/ door lock. The passenger side has the angled peice that attached to the door latch/lock chrome trim piece. Is this correct?
It doesn't look like it was ever replaced yet I have seen interiors of other 560s that have matching door pulls for both sides. In fact, the door latch/lock trim piece for the driver side does not look to have anyway to attach an additiobal pull. Wondered if others have this setup. Thanks. |

Mine is the same way as you describe -- that is, driver and passenger sides are different. I haven't seen it any other way.
Whenever I have doubts about the authenticity of a part or look, I check out Ebay ads for these cars -- there are usually a lot of pictures - and I can confirm that mine is the same (or different )

I didn't even think to do that in this instance. You're right about ebay, I do the same. Although I have noticed a couple in my area that do have the extra pull on the drivers side. Also, I noticed in the Performance Parts catalog they show a picture of one as well. That's what got me really wondering.
Thanks for the reply, at least I know it wasn't replaced with a cheaper part. |
