I'm still very appreciative for that first drive that started a passion for Datsuns with no end in sight :lol:

I just picked up a pair of armrest at Datsun Garage for my car last week at 71$ USD, I have not seen them yet in my hands as they're being delivered today at my mailbox in NY but from the pictures they look similar to the ones mentioned here in this thread

They just say armrest, no plural. Can you confirm you get a pair for $71 usd.

I have a set of those on my car, very solid.

Make sure you use as big a washer, like factory, that will fit into the hole.

Any update on yours, Jacques? It appears these may be the wider ones from later Nissan cars. Looking at their website photos, I see this upper photo, compared to the smaller ones that sit farther forward on my car in the second photo

Got them yesterday came nicely packaged and in a sealed bag

While they do look bigger than my originals

They line up and will fit in the same holes

I'm thinking its just a slightly different design , and the pictures you posted above might be the difference in placement might be from 2dr to 4dr

I'm glad they work! And yes, the 2-door has a longer door, so part of the difference is just the placement of the handle relative to the end of the door. And also, it is a bit longer but with similar hole pattern, that is very helpful to know! I just bought a pair of the other ones (new, unused from another forum member ostaylor via this threads and he's sending them to me... thanks Owen! I'll post pics to compare to yours, Jacques

They look pretty similar if not identical... The ones I bought came from a guy in Mexico and are brand new, but not packaged like the ones from Datsun Garage. Maybe there was either old stock in Mexico or someone there manufactured a run of these. If Datsun Garage got a lot of them, that's good for all of us! Be interesting to know how much stock they have.

Glad I was able to get you a pair Dave but not particularly efficient going back and forth across borders, especially given the Canadian border effectiveness at charging us Canadians every possible fee :^).

If anyone in Canada needs a pair, let me know. I have at least one extra set, maybe two and happy to help in the preservation of another 510!

Owen
