Driver's Left Elbow Pad
Hey everyone
Does anyone sell a pad for the door arm rest to raise it up a bit? I want to get the leather pad for the console lid and I checked it out in a friends car and liked it alot but the arm rest built into the door panel for my left elbow is too low and needs to be more even in height with the console and padded. Makes it a bit uncomfortable in my book. Thanks, JA

Get the one from Vette Essentials. I have them on my car and they are so much more comfortable than the stock door panel.

Its a great product. I went for straight black but I wish I'd had the accents now.

arm rest
Ecklers also has them, but for the same price I went with the Vette Essentials. They look much better, and I bet the quality is much better as well. I went with the two-tone black and tan...looks awesome. I will post pics later.
I think they are $139 from VE. You will not be dissapointed!

Another vote for VE - best quality and I believe an original Ken King design. Why go with the imitators, when you can have the original?
