Trans Am leg pillow ?

I heard that the 1983 Trans Am's could have come with A leg pillow. It attaches to the side of the radio consol. If anyone has this and could take some pictures of it. I would love to see them. Thanks

Some 'Birds did have the feature you mention. I was interested in one for my Camaro long ago, only to discover that since the consoles are shaped differently, the piece wouldn't fit without some fiddling. Pics/info below:

WOW that's gotta be one ridiculously rare option! Can't say I'd see an actual need for it personally, not to mention the fact that it looks out of place, but definitely rare and unusual as I've never actually heard of it much less seen one.

I like it!

Believe it or not, I sure like that pillow. It is very comfortable on long drives. Turn on the cruise control, lift your knees to place your feet flat on the floor and you are in cruising comfort. (especialy because I have the Leir Siegel seats)
