Front Console Armrest - Leather.

Annfield-East · 10th June 2021, 07:35

I am trying to source a grey leather front console armrest.

Most advertised on E-Bay are described as leather but I have my doubts.

Below is a link to what is currently on offer. Are any of these real leather?

Thanks.

In 2019 I raised a thread https://the75andztclub.co.uk/forum/s...light=ARM+REST
pointing to genuine leather arm rests I bought on EBay. They are Real Leather and look / feel superb – have three of them. The seller is in Southampton and I have just found his latest EBay post at
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/390774488...AAAMXQkl9Rc8uK . Price still same at £24 – but worth it.
These are Black but might be worth contacting him to see if he has any in Grey.
I did an EBay search using ‘'ROVER MG ZR 75 ARMREST BLACK COVER LEATHER’ by the way.

They look real cool, and I also need a replacement handbrake gaiter as the current grey one is damaged. Considering that the gear knob is black plastic, and I hope to have a real leather one by tomorrow, it may be worth changing both handbrake and gear gaiters to black leather and try to obtain a black leather handbrake grip.

I will be taking the car to MGR John tomorrow. He has a huge stock of used 75 spares, so I'll check what he has.

I have had arm rest covers, gear lever gaiters and handbrake gaiters from them for several cars over a few years, and all have been good
