I have a 2001 pt with leather seats. I'm new to the forum so I don't know if this question has been asked.
I noticed that the 2001 cloth seats have passenger arm rests but the leather seats don't. All 2002 pt's have pass. arm rests.
I talked to a parts dealer and was told that there is no support member for the arm rest with the leather seats. Is this fair? We pay more for the leather seats and get cheated out of the arm rest. I also read in the owner's guide and it says that with the side air bag, people should not lean against the door. I don't know about you, but it would be very uncomfortable to sit straight up with nothing to lean against on long trips. So not only do I feel cheated by not getting the arm rest, I believe it is also a safety issue. I was told it would cost at least 600.00 for a new seat back that would support the arm rest. Please research. I believe the 2001 pt owners have a legitimate complaint.
