I have a 1988 Vanagon Camper. How do I know if this armrest kit will fit my seats?

This kit is designed for all Vanagons from 1980-1991, including your 1988 Camper model. It fits the front driver and passenger seats, as well as the center auxiliary seat, as long as they have the non-adjustable, two-position armrests. Just make sure your armrests don't have multiple recline angles – if they are the simpler, fixed type, this kit is your solution!

What exactly comes in the Armrest Fix Kit? Do I need to buy anything else?
