Good luck....let us know if you go forward with it.

this is something I've been thinking about doing since the 05 came out... the padded leather armrest is literally one of the only things I like better about 05-06 (and the front hood seal)... the Infiniti tech I used at the time was willing to warranty swap "a" door panel, but said they would baulk if he tried to do 2... they are like $1100 each (if I remember correctly)...
I even went to 4-5 upholstery shops to see if they could replicate the armrest... most said no because 03-04 is molded plastic... 1 said he could do it but I needed to get an 05 to him to see exactly what I wanted (never got around to it)...
So, eventually I plan to get to a salvage yard and try to find a pair.
Once you've driven an 05-06 sedan, you will NEVER be content with the 03-04 armrests... This thread has me re-visiting the idea - DAMN IT! As if I don’t have enough car **** on the list!!!

Yes, that's why I was asking if the "door panels" were a exact swap. LOL.

There's a f'ed up drivers door at a junkyard near my house...if you have black interior..I can see if they will part with the door panel.
