No pictures available, but I can tell you the fit is snug, which is a good
thing.  Armrest is adjustable fore and aft on its stand and, stand is
adjustable for width.  Return it to JC Whitney if unacceptable, you'll
simply be out postage costs.  There is some limited flexibilty in the metal
stand legs to shape to the hump.  I didn't attach the stand to the hump, as
you need to allow for handbrake travel.  Armrest construction is good.

IMHO, a reasonable solution to missing center console.

Thanks Bruce. I've seen this armrest advertised in JC Whitney and
wondered
how well it would fit. Only about $30 if I recall correctly. Can you
send or
post a picture?

Thanks,
Hugh Fader
