Arm rest pad replacement?
Anyone know where I can buy the pad that goes around the cup holders on the arm rest. Mine is paled up due to the plastic shrinking from the heat.
Worse on the pass. side.

I just bought and replaced with this about two weeks ago. Spendy for what it is, but it is very nice quality, fits perfectly and was a simple fix.
As far as the OEM pad itself, you can't purchase that as an individual item, you'd need to replace the entire center console. Good luck finding one that doesn't have the exact same problem. It's a design flaw to put expanding foam in something like that center arm rest.

Mine was the same way and all I did was used some real good glue and something heavy enough to hold the corner down. Let it sit over night and it's as good as new

it takes a little patience to tuck the corner back and get something heavy on top but it works. Ill take a pic when I get home to show ya

For me, replacing it was the path of least resistance. But either way is certainly workable.

I prepped it with denatured alcohol before I put the glue and it's definitely a money saver plus you can't even tell the difference after letting it sit for a while

I had the same problem until it completely broke off. I just replaced the whole jump seat with a center console for just a little more than I could find the pad for. I purchased it from partshotlines.com. It was out of a wrecked truck.

I have seen your thread and have it as an option. I do like the center console and will probably never use the center seat. Hmmm. How much storage did you gain? Pros and Cons would be nice.
