    Armrest question

    Has anyone put a RHD armrest on a LHD for convenience for opening door and why were our cars done this way?

    Gets in the way of elbows whilst properly driving a Porsche. Handle on the passenger side for hanging-on.
    As for convince, we all figure it out, somehow.

    Porsche seems to disagree as they added a driver side handle in 1974 and never looked back.
