Default Re: arm rest installation

"Clipped" on or welded on? If welded, run an undersized drill from the back side, through the nuts. Then use a step drill from the front side to match the screws. It will be a tight fit, but the sheet metal should be forgiving. If clipped, matching up with paint or grease on the tips is the way to go. The driver & passenger rests should be mirrors of each other (double-check)...so using the passenger handle as template on drivers side and visa-versa should work.
