Ken,

There are no door armrests on those later models with captain's chairs,
I believe.  Your choices are:

1.  Get the later type panels sans armrests and install them.
2.  Remove your armrests and cover the holes with tape.
3.  Cut your armrests to half thickness and use a fat, long sheet metal
screw to attach them through the existing holes, or you could screw
(from the back of the panel) and glue them just to the panel itself.
They are only decoration now to cover the holes.
4.  Fabricate a hole cover to your liking and glue it on.

#3 is what I did, and it works and looks fine.  Use a table saw and rip
fence with a fine tooth blade for best results.
