Door Amrest Pad

Hi All:

What do you think of this item that adds height to the door armrests? Input would be appreciated.







Thanks,

Very cool, the door rest is too low to rest your arm, how does it feel with it?

The height is just right and it installs with Velcro tape.

Looks outta place, but yeah the armrest by default is a little too low.

Got a pair of these just before the holidays. Having had them installed for a couple of weeks now just wanted to report that they are great!

I agree that they maybe aint the best looking tweak to the car, but I don't see how they could be improved much on that front. Maybe increasing the size to cover the entire rear section of the armrest (i.e. slightly wider and longer)

However from a comfort point of view they are exactly what is needed. They add the perfect amount of height so you can rest your elbow and hold the wheel roughly in the middle.

So now I can rest one elbow on this, the other on the center cushion which hand on gearstick and all in nicely padded comfort.

If like me you found your elbow getting sore from the solid armrests then get yourself one, or a matching pair

Thanks ZOO5.

I would not install these - they look strange and out of place as it was mentioned.
Then again, my arms are long and so the height of the armrest is just fine for me
