A reclinable vehicle seat is provided having an arm rest which is connected to the seat at a single location on the side of the seat back. The arm rest is connected to the seat back by a retainer that pivots with respect to the seat back to automatically maintain a predetermined orientation of the arm rest as the seat back is reclined relative to the seat bottom. The arm rest is pivotable with respect to the retainer to positions higher than the predetermined orientation to facilitate access to the seat. The retainer is preferably fully enclosed within the seat. The arm rest is separately upholstered from the rest of the seat and attaches to the retainer after upholstering such that the seat can be fully upholstered. Two arm rests can be simultaneously adjusted as the seat back is reclined by using two separate retainers or an extension attached to a single retainer. The retainer maintains the predetermined orientation of the arm rest through a movable connection to the seat bottom.
