1st arm is new passenger arm (repo)
2nd arm is broken drivers arm (repo)
3rd arm is original steel from eBay

You may be able see on 1st I broke that removing it. I had to tap in with soft hammer. I did this removing it after I posted above post. I think it will still work arg. So I painted it anyways.

2nd is practice filing to get down to 1/8 inch. It went into drivers door no problem. So tab is with set screw hole.

3rd arm fit right in.

I first thought you had to unscrew hinge to get these arms in but you don’t need hinge off. They go on over hinge with pin removed. Let me know if this helps or want anymore pics

The last pics are drivers door with broken arm prcticing
