    Default E32 Rear Center Armrest on E34

    I got it in perfect EXCEPT for the mounting bolts that secure it to the car. I dont have holes for it and my drill cant go through the metal, any way to clamp it or something?

    It's not the drill, it's the bit. Sharpen or get a new one. Even a cheap bit will cut if you use lots of pressure and slow speed. The chip should be in a continuous curl.

    My car came with a centre armrest in the back. Dont you have to cut lumps out of the seats to make it fit? Just curious

    Yep, its also a storage device rather than just a solid armrest. It came from a E32 740iL
