Armrest Cover?

withersea · 10-04-2009, 03:04 PM

Anyone know if there is an armrest cover available for the Gen III? My 06 has a fabric interior and the center armrest looks pretty bad from soaking up sweat after my runs at the park. I would like to get the cover on my new one before it has a chance to become a sweat sponge. Thanks for your help!

I am pretty sure that these type of aftermarket goodies are in the process of being produced. You way want to go on eBay and ask sellers of the Gen II when they will have Gen III accessories. I got a cover years ago for my 2004 and it is like a leather glove which surrounds the center cover. Works great and wears well. In the meantime to prevent further wear, you may want to get a leather remnant, cut it to size and velcro it temporarily until they have the exact size for the Gen III.

I ordered and installed Okoli seat covers and they came with an armrest cover, FWIW.

You can probably just buy pieces through Katzin or Classio - I would give fair warning that the center cover is not simple to disassemble... There are like 3-4 screws in the back (you move the rest back to get at them), then flip it up, and there are like another 3-4 in the front section, then you pry it apart...

The clazzio is vinyl and it slips right on. It's held by elastic bungee type cords or typical elastic bands.
