Detail of the restraint system stowage on the lunar module pilot's side of the cockpit mockup.

Also note the white, wedge-shaped hand controller armrest. One of these armrests was present on either side of each astronaut's position. They were stowed vertically but could rotate down to provide stability for operation of the thrust/translation controller assembly and the attitude controller assembly and to restrain the astronaut laterally.
