Review on ๐Ÿ”ต ISSYAUTO Center Console and Front Door Panel Armrest Cover Kit for 2009-2015 Pilot, Gray by Kelly Noonan

Revainrating 4 out of 5

You will need small hand tools and a pad stapler.

Like the fit, it's right. For proper installation, you need to remove the old cover, glue the new one and fasten it to the edge with a stapler. I cheated and just slipped the new case over the old one. Procedure: 1) Remove the armrest by removing the screws from the hinges. with a Philips screwdriver. I work on the surface of the hold like a workbench. 2) Remove the plastic trim under the armrest using an interior trim tool or just a butter knife. 3) Remove the latch again with the Phillips screwdriver. 4 ) Stretch the cover material around the palm rest. clip in. (I used an electric stapler) Press really hard while working with the cargo area and the foam in the armrest will absorb the impact and keep the staples from penetrating. Use 1/4" long struts but be careful with the back lip of the armrest, the struts are too long and stick out a bit to feel the end of the struts if you push hard with your elbow. I use a pair of pliers to bend the tips down and leave a perforation line on the back edge, no big deal, you'll have to look around to see it, just a cheap case that looks like a cheap case (shower cap style), so for those who don't know how to use hand tools this isn't for you Cut around these elements but be careful not to cut which will expose the cuts on the top outside of the inner panel making them unattractive ..All the work took a little over an hour but plan, get all the tools ready and get to work.Good luck, take your time and you'll be blessed with a nice new wrist rest without. Mine was light gray and the color of the material is 95% the same. You have to look closely to notice that it's not the same material/colour but it looks very good and looks appealing, especially if your original armrest cover is torn. Definitely recommend.
