    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Got one for my GV80. Pretty happy as it gives extra padding and is installed in such a way that I dont think it will slide around like the one I had for my palisade that would slide forward and backward regularly. The GV80 has the Glacier interior. I ordered the Glacier White armrest but I believe one of the tabs said beige or something but it appears to match up nicely color wise. Worth noting that with this on the driver side doesn't automatically open all the way for me anymore as the extra padding hits the seat. You can push it open. I wish the inside of it was black vs bright white but I am nitpicking along with the decision for them to put their branding on the passenger side which I think cheapens it.

Have you tested it with heating enabled for the arm rest?

Has been cold enough for me to turn on heated seats but I can give it a go. The pads are fairly thick so I imagine it would take a hot miniature to warm up through the padding etc
 
Yes, that's why I went with a thick cloth cover but of course it won't have the same problem as yours's will.
Still, it looks good and the white matches well.

Ran it for several minutes and the front tip that isn't covered got super warm but didnt feel anything on the padding. I unlinked the feature for now so the armrest doesn't turn on while using the heated seats
 
Interested in the bordeaux brown for my 2025 GV80 w/ the Bordeaux Brown/Slate Gray Interior but the color looks way off from matching the leather. Is it color matched well or is it just named similar? I saw no way to contact them on the site but maybe I justr didn't see it.

Hi there. Contact information is at the top of the website for both mobile and desktop devices.

The Bordeaux Brown is made to match the Bordeaux Brown leather. Lighting plays a part and that can cause the color to appear somewhat different. It may not be a 100% match (I don't have a GV80 here to compare), but it's at least close. So far I've sold a few and haven't had any complaints.
 
Thanks for the info Sal!
 
Update: Pulled the trigger on the bordeaux brown unit. Color matches great! The only difficulty with installation is sliding the fabric flaps under the two lids. The firm ends hit a vertical “wall” and there is no real good way to coax them to bend up as needed so they can be grabbed. With lots of trial and error, I was able to get them both to come out where expected. Other than that, it fits great and looks great too. Closing the doors requires a bit of additional effort since the padding between the doors is thicker than the seam. Not hard to do however, and it will possibly ease up over time. Overall, well worth it IMO. Comfy on the forearm while driving too.

Well I'm glad that when all is said and done, you like the armrest cover. I carry Aimban because it's the best quality I've seen thus far... They really do make great products.
 
Can someone please tell me how to get the flaps to go underneath the cover and out the front?
