I would counsel against this method, having done it that way myself.
After I screwed it to the carpet, stapled down the carpet around the
transmission tunnel, and replaced the seats, I found that the armrest was
sitting too far back on the transmission tunnel. :-( In order to
reposition it, I would have to remove the floor pan carpet, then pull up
the stapled transmission tunnel carpet to get to those damned screws to
adjust it. In hindsight, I would go with sewing a strip of velcro to the
transmission tunnel carpet and gluing another strip on the bottom of the
armrest. This would make the armrest infinitely adjustable on those long
trips.
