Did you get any leather covers for your door pocket covers?
I didn't get the door pocket covers, if I'd known I would have ordered those too. Maybe I still will. :-)

Thanks Heliguy for the tips. So the batting still allows the cover to fit nicely? Looks like it from the pics. I'm no where near my car to look at how this installs, so I wonder on a normal install if you disassemble the armrest and tuck the leather in between the halves or if spray adhesive is the recommended method?
