Padding for armrests

Has anyone found a pad that can be applied to the door arm rests. There are a couple which attach to the window edge but they would be way too high. I'm looking for something that can be added to the original location.
Thanks
Terry

i have been thinking about the same thing. i thought about cutting a piece of neoprene and attaching it down somehow. Maybe glued to one of those grip pad things that you're supposed to put up on your dash and put your phone on it and they don't slide around. or drawer liner type material, something not permanent but non skid.

on the longer drives i take to michigan, about 5-6 hours, my arm starts feeling a bit sore. everyday stuff doesn't both me as much though.

Me too....been considering options. The material is weak and brittle. Lean to hard, like changing your butt position, and the material collapses. Leaves low spots on the armrest.

Been there, done that.....LOL

Glad to hear that I'm not the only one. My Dad had one that fits down along the window, it was too high.... If anyone finds anything that works, PLEASE let us know.
