GM armrest replacement

http://thatcamaropartsguy.com/gm-arm...eneral-motors/

What are these exactly? I have a 1SS and the armrest is a little hard to the touch, I was trying to find something softer. Is this what I'm looking for? Or will it feel the same as the one I currently have?

I swapped mine out for the Heritage armrest no difference in softness.

Look for the suede one. Nicer feel. Not really softer.
You could have someone re wrap it with some foam underneath

I liked the factory one but I added the heritage floor mats so I wanted to add the armrest to match.

I'll be getting the FIFTY armrest soon. How hard is the swap?

I wish there was a left driver's side arm rest. It's very hard and uncomfortable imo.

My elbow doesn't even rest on that thing. It completely overshoots it and rests on the cup holders.

Ditto. The suede one feels a lot nicer.

Come on, I was just teasing you with (h)armrest. Your interior looks immaculate, btw, congrats

Agree. I got the suede one and love it. During hot summer days my arm would stick to original pleather one.
