1. Lift the armrest cover and remove the six screws shown below. The armrest cover should easily come off.

2. Flip the armrest cover and start peeling back the old leather cover. Once you are done you are left with this.

3. Place your new armrest cover over the plastic piece. I held it in place with the little clips to get the right fitment. At this point I have not glued anything.

Optional: If you have just ordered the armrest cover and still want some more cushioning you can add some padding that can be found at a fabric store or other. Look how thin the OEM stuff is.

4. Remove the clips on one side at a time. Add glue and put the clips back until the glue has set. Make sure that the clips donÕt stay on too long or there will be little marks on the material. Work your way around all four sides.

In this case Loctite SuperGlue was used. Other clients have used Loctite Fabric Glue however, this may not be readily available. There may be other alternatives but are not covered in the scope of this document.

5. Once the glue has set you are ready to re-install. Simply replace the 6 six screws removed in step 1 and you are all set.

Congratulations, you're DONE!

Useful tip

You have installed a product made out of genuine leather. As you know, to maintain a leather product in good condition, you should take care of it. We suggest occasionally (every 4-6 week for example) applying some leather conditioner/UV protector to keep your leather from drying up in the sun and cracking.
