i tried doing a search, but.... anyways, so if this has been posted before, i am sorry.

i was wondering if anyone has a pic of the armrest from courtesy installed on their car.

thanks in advance.

$49.95 for a square of 1" cushion covered in black vinyl with velcro strips? Me thinks you could make that (or something similar) to be honest.

I don't know about you, but I don't find that my elbows go back that far.

I bought the ZREST. I think it's www.zrest.com. It was 49.95 and is a 1" cushion with black vinyl. It is very well made and I would say the best mod I've done so far. It makes driving so comfortable I highly recommend.

i think zrest is the one that went out of business. i remember they had a closeout sale of their inventory a while back, if that is the same company. that is the one with the built in cup holder right? the only problem with that one is that it blocks the cup holder compartment.

once in a while, my elbow accidentally hits the heater switches and i wonder why my butt gets hot until i realize what i did. in hawaii, i rarely use the heated seats. (only when it hits the low 60's and i have the top down)

i am trying to figure out a way to cover that switch area in a nice way.

i admit that courtesy's product does look a bit cheapy, but it is hard to tell without it being photographed on the car.

thanks for the responses so far though.

is build up a callus so you don't need some ***** pad.

my 2 cents.

I checked out the courtesy nissan site and that is the ZREST that I have. He must have sold them to courtesy. YES, definately get one.

then report back to us if you like it.....i think you will.

Personally, my elbow doesn't go that far back when shifting or resting. I think I need a pad that sits in between the e-brake and the center dash console, cause thats where my elbow sits all the time. Unless of course you have arms the length of Kevin Mchale I don't think you need to spend $50 for a oversized bandage.

I'm 6' and my elbow would hit the seat warmer button all the time. Sometimes it would open the compartment with the cup holders.

I've had that happen to me once or twice (6'1" here). That is a bit annoying, but nothing one can't ignore.

I usually end up turning on the heat and or hazard when I rest my elbow with hand on the stick. Maybe someone could make up something to cover them in a soft barrier and still leave access to the buttons.
