You might be able to find some realatively inexpensively out of a wreck. Some other models might fit it as well. Good luck.

I am glad I can walk but painkillers are a nuisance.

Trim shop said they added about 4" of padding to the seatback to fill the void between the stock padding and the spring/wire that supports the seat. I can't remember how much they added to the bottom cushion.

I can post pics of the arm rest tho... I'll do it over the weekend and post once taken.
