So some experimentation on tranny mounts lately. I did a bunch of swapping over last year back and fourth with stock, WL, Perrin T, Kartboy and most recently a STI mount. Conclusion for me the STI mount is superior. Why? Holds best and makes the least amount of NVH, nothing more noticeable over stock one. As you can see here with this picture it's obviously "more beefy".

We'll see. What "I'd really like is some light smoked lens Toms'"

But....they don't seem to want to do those. :-(

To install the arm rest do I have to remove the seats???

The rear armrest I assume you're asking about? If so yes but it's very simple to remove the back bottoms. One bolt each side.

Remove bolt on front, push down on back bottom middle and pull forward from front. When re installing those bottoms push down same place and rock it in upwards so the catches (catch) then re insert single bolt per seat/side.

No there is nothing electronically connected between any air bag and the rear bottoms or rear Center piece.
