How to install the armrest on the driver's seat of the Volkswagen Transporter

Model: Volkswagen Transporter T5, MK 5 - Years 2003-2014

The instructions in this guide will show us how to install the armrest on the front driver's seat of the Volkswagen Transporter. First, we open the front driver's side door and start unscrewing the fixing screws found on the seat rails, moving the seat back and forth to access them; we then remove the seat from the cabin. At this point, we remove the seat covering, installing the armrest bracket; all that's left is to attach the armrest, adjust it, and finally reassemble the front seat.
