Well finally got around to buying a Ipod a couple of weeks ago. Decided to do the armrest install. Didnt come out to bad.
I basically just carved the wood out of a old shelf we had lying around at work.
Yes I know my interior is filthy, been meaning to clean it for a couple of years now.

That looks tons better than all of the pictures I can recall from DIY's-past. Nice work!
Just because you can do something, does not mean you should.

I dont have any pics during, but I took a drill bit that matched the circumfrance of the corners and marked the bit with tape the depth I wanted to go and drilled the six corners out then drilled four lines down through the middle. After it was all drilled out just took a chisel and knocked it out. The bottom part took a small bit and drilled across then same thing just knocked it out with a chisel, then took a flat file and filed the opening to the size I needed.
