Default Center Armrest Cover?

I am wondering if there is any Center Arm Rest covers for the Scion xB? I have always used a towel to cover it, but I would prefer a cover so it stops falling off you know?

I have looked but I have never found one, I have a 2012 xB.

Ive temporarily wrapped mine in the same material as my DashMat cover.

Ive got a strip of Velcro connecting the 2 ends together & is only visible when the cover is open. I can do a better job but looks clean nonetheless!

I would have thought there would be an aftermarket hard cover to fit over

Only one I know of is by Redline Goods but it's only for the gen 2, not the 2.5. If your armrest is made anything like the gen 2 one you can unscrew the lid into two halves. It's then easy enough to wrap the top half inn whatever material you want and screw it back together. I've done mine with purple microfiber and also with chocolate leather. With the leather I did have to sew it together from three pieces as it did not have enough give to stretch around the rear side corners.

Wow! Nice Work on the Leather Center Armrest Cover!

Tell us a little more about your Leather Seats/Covers?

The seat covers are from www.leatherseats.com Full replacement leather material for the seats all stitched up and ready to go. All I had to do was pull the fabric off and reupholster them with the leather. I also ordered an extra 1/4 hide of matching leather when I bought them. That's what the armrest is covered with as well as the steering wheel.
