Pinchey malo armrests
I tossed one of my bad armrests to the carpenter we have do some of our millwork down here and asked him to see what he
could come up with and I think he did pretty well! Its no big deal to a good cabinet maker but I was pleased with the product
and the price (400 pesos/ unit) or at todays exchange about 35$ Can. The wood is parota a locally sourced hardwood. Pretty close
job on the mounting holes as well so they hooked up ok and even got to keep the light.Saludo's.

Re: Pinchey malo armrests
I'll second that. I've been thinking of doing that since I bought the van, but I know the price would definitely be prohibitive here in BC. That's 'British Columbia' not 'Baja California'.fishslapper wrote:forget the block of wood .........bring back a dozen sets of those. I would pay $100 for a pair !!
