Ally There's a few £29.99 Buy it Now's on Fleabay just now :whistling:

Watching.

My only concern is the colour match, if the leather is a different colour black, or the texture/gaining is different. I want it to look factory, and not bodged.

The OEM ones do seem to command a fortune when they do become available.

You could probably even dye the leather slightly darker if required.

Never seen him before, he must be one of your mates Jim.

I happen to manage a furniture shop, as well as dealing with a lot of insurance jobs. I have a guy for leather, a guy for fabric, and even a guy for wood. (Go on, make your jokes!)

WOW, thanks for all the replies, I thought id get shot down in flames for using non lexus parts....Theres an oops on my part though, the armrest comes in a material finish.
I recovered mine in leather from a C series volvo as it was a very close match as you can see.
If you search on e-bay there are leather covers made especially for these armrests.
I didnt take any photos when fitting as i wasnt sure that it would look ok,but i can give written directions if required.
