Leather Door Armrest covers?

Anyone used these before?

I'm always resting my arm here so this seems like a worthwhile upgrade, the hard plastic irritates me after a while.

I'd be scared (red) as leather is dyed & on the door where water tends to run down in that spot alot when its wet out that the color may beed some ? Ive seen it happed to other things so just be careful !

I have them on my 07 GT/CS, in black and have had no problems with them. The fit is good and once on do not shift position, They don't really add any extra padding for your arm, but I got them to accent the black panels in my parchment/black interior. Also got their headrest wraps, again, no problems.

I brought a set in black and use them. They work well but most people don't notice them. I also made a padded black leather cushion for the door thats right behind that handle. Cut out a trace of the ledge with paper, then brought a 1/8 board from a hobby shop. Also purchase some black leather and some 1" foam. Cut and glue them to the right size and I now have a padded door ledge. I have about $15 invested.

Wow, I remember when these were way less. Thanks for FOMOCO marks up, LOL. The wraps were nice, the pads were well made as well. I was a distributor up until 2009. Both are nice but not for everyone.

Pics of your DIY? I have bony elbows and the armrest, and top of the door panel kill me on longer trips.

I have their leather shift boot and am satisfied with it. The leather is pretty thick. It took a while for it to wear in and stop squeaking when I shift, but you wouldn't have that issue with the arm rest piece.
