Arm Rest is Ripped Options

[Durran]

Hey guys, long time lurker here. I bought my '95 Celica GT hatchback about two years ago from a dealership that was in excellent condition except for the arm rest. It had 3 large horizontal rips on it (presumably from the previous owners' elbow). I haven't bothered with it for all this time but want to get it fixed now (just for aesthetics).


Sorry for the glare on that, I used my phone to take the picture.

Anyways, someone told me about going to a Toyota junkyard and looking for a replacement armrest or something like that. What do you guys suggest I do to fix this?

You guys actually might like it more without the big padded armrest. I've driven a few sixth gens, and the padded armrest on one of them got in my way when shifting. Then again, I'm fairly short, so I sit pretty low in the seat. I bet taller people don't get bugged by the bigger, padded arm rest.

I took the armrest off and I am going to see how it works tomorrow.
