Center Console Armrest Pad Covers-Car Arm Rest Seat Box Leather Protector Fit for Honda Civic 2016-2020(Black with Black Line)

Great quality product. There a lot of modifications that need to be made like trimming the sides for the arm rest. Takes time to install. I went just for the sides and made a 2 tone with carbon fiber in the middle.

Installed on a 2019 Civic Si CoupePros:Kit arrived quickly and was packaged well. I saw others state theirs were creased upon arrival and needed to be flattened out. Mine seemed fine and i was able to get to work.The pieces are generous with the amount of leather overhang, which can be a pro or a con. As it did involve me cutting the cover. I used my sewing scissors as my other scissors did not want to cut the pleather.Kit did not have an overwhelming plastic / chemical smell.Cons:A lot of extra fabric/pleather material is on the cover which required me to trim it to get it to fit.Overall thoughts:I would recommend the product. Only time will tell how the material and adhesive lasts. I installed mine OVER the existing sand paper like fabric arm rests. Take your time. I covered the entire arm rest pieces with the tape, but then slowly removed strips of the paper to reveal a new section of tape - this limited my accidently sticking and need to unstick the pleather and reattach it.The tools the kit came with were nice. I used the one tool to easily pop up the side arm rests starting at the front of the car and working backwards. The center armrest came out after removing 2 screws and pulling on it. It is secured with 2 clips towards the rear seat.

Nice Thermopedic style drivers left elbow pad about twice size of old chalkboard school eraser. Has zipper for cleaning black cover.Supposed to attach with Velcro but idiot engineer but soft loop (fuzzy) side sewed onto bottom center. That leaves no choice but to install a rough hook faster piece of Velcro just aft of a Civic Type R (typical of any vehicle door armrest on a padded vinyl surface (won’t stick well, gets gummy, falls of quickly. I prefer to use this only on longer trips and can’t take the rough Velcro hairbrush feel in my forearm. Keeping installed, adhesive on several brands of Hook with adhesive back won’t adhere long to the armrest.Result is it takes over my door pocket until trip time, then sits unattached on the door armrest, First time you take arm off it mat fall off that perch, and when stopping, easy to forget it’s there, thank goodness it mostly bounce out instead of under car when forgotten and door opens.If you have a hard side armrest of plastic you could glue Velcro hook material to your door to match the loop on bottom center but good chance right where you’d like it is too close to the door grab handle for Velcro attachment. Nice try and pad itself decent, your door config determines satisfaction or frustration.

The product itself is a great quality. It looks nice, it fits well. The stitching looks like it will hold up under initial review. The problem I have with this product is the installation. The double-sided tape works fantastic. There are a couple of videos out there on YouTube of how to install this. BE WARNED..... They don’t necessarily work and it’s not as easy as it looks in the video. Tucking the edges and excess material is a real pain to get it to look right. In my opinion it needs trimming. I took it to an auto upholstery shop and for 100 bucks installed it by replacing the old cloth and the old padding and putting this kit in. So in the end this kit cost me $130, installed. A pretty decent value in my mind because it came out great it looks fantastic. I’m pretty handy but Im no upholsterer. Overall happy with the product ....just a real pain in the butt for the install. My installer did have to do some trimming. Otherwise the clips will not fit when you reinstall The three pieces to the console.

Review:(I installed on my 2020 Civic SI coupe)Overall I’m happy with the product and believe that the look of the car has improved because of it.The kit arrived folded with creases so I laid it flat with a book on top and left it overnight which, in my opinion, helped. The fitment all depends on your execution and may look better or worse than mine, I recommend following my tips below, as well as watching a how-to video on YouTube.Tips:Be patient, and set aside at least 2 hours as the majority of time is consumed by placing and peeling off the tape.Don’t peel off all the double sided tape at once, you can stick the cover to the armrest one side at a time gradually peeling off more and more tape (this will help reduce the amount of readjustments necessary).Don’t be afraid to peel off the cover and readjust if necessary, the kit comes with more than enough tape just in case.Cutoff any excess leather (do this in little bits as oppose to one giant cut) to properly reinsert the armrest in its place and to reduce friction.Make sure to lay everything out prior to sticking the cover and armrest together (this will give you a better sense of how everything should look when finished. You don’t want to install it facing the wrong way.)

I did the install myself. Y’all, 🥴 I see a lot of complaining about the install and like, working on cars isn’t easy. I set asside 2 hours and a half hours for the project because I’m not very good with things like this. Never dealt with upolstry in my whole life 🤷🏻‍♀️ Once I got the hang of it, it was not that bad. The adhesive stuck like it should. The leather or faux leather pulled taunt. And she came out pretty damn good for the fact I’ve never done upolstry.The how to video saves lives. Also some common sense goes a long way. Anyway, lol my center console looks great! I have not worried about spills now for a minute!! Very happy with my purchase, it’s not perfect. BUT I did it myself. Also be sure to make small cuts to the leather as you go, and don’t unstick all the adhesive until you’re ready to put the leather on. Thank you
