What year and car do these armrests fit?

I have a pair of third gen armrests that I would like to sell. Would like to know what years and models they would fit. Theses are not like the normal ones that use the spacers

I'd have to see the whole thing to know for sure but it looks like the '87-up "deluxe" armrest. Normally found in the GTA.

They are not gta style. They look like a normal third gen armrest except for the ends.

Now that I see the whole thing,the early 3rd gens(Firebirds) have a filler piece for the top of the armrest.

They will fit all 82-92 Camaro or firebird.These are the deluxe style fatter armrests normally found on 88-92 cars.If your old armrests use a spacer trim piece you will need to swap out the door handle trim piece with one from an 88-92 car which has a smaller hole for the armrest to mount into.I found this out when I swapped in newer style armrests and the one mount that goes up top by the handle had a gap
