Default Seat Covers and Carpet

I'm looking at buying new leather seat covers, foam, armrest cover and new carpet for the '66 coupe. I'm under the impression that Wilcox is the go to place. Anything else I should know about before buying this stuff?

It all sounds good except the arm rest covers. I'm not aware they make any such thing anymore, but maybe. If not, you will need to buy complete door panels. You may need a seat cover install kit comprised of wires and burlap, and hog rings. If your door hardware is good, just get basic door panels with the top stainless installed. How is your jute padding? Dennis

I'm referring to the center armrest. Jute padding doesn't look bad from the small areas I've looked at
