My rear center console pad is good condition; however, I want to add a 'cover' for shifting...

RWUpholstery:
The console saddle is designed to add a little padding for your arm and make traveling a little more comfortable .


The only options I know are RWUpholstery and MrMikes


Any comments or opinion?

And no, I don't want to add cupholders....

I ordered the RWUpholstery one for my daughter's car. We haven't received it yet, it takes some time for him to make them, but it's well worth it.

I'll take pictures and post them here when we get them... could be any day now.

Thanks, and RWUpholstery has one 'grey' while MrMike has a few 'grey' colors...

What color did you order: grey or 'tan' or black?

Both Russ and Mike told me that they sent color swatches, so I'm waiting for the samples...

I ordered gray, but haven't received it yet. I haven't even received confirmation yet, haha...

I ordered the center console last time, so I know he's good for it, but I'm wondering if he forgot... but I'll let you know when I get them. This last order I ordered another center console and a gray arm rest cover (to match my daughter's interior).

EDIT: Yeah, I ordered it on September 1st, haven't received a notification yet. I'm thinking there might have been something wrong with his system. I looked at my past order and I received an order confirmed notification on the same day I bought it. All I have is my PayPal receipt. He also shipped it within two weeks of my original order. So my guess is, his system was having problems and he didn't get any notification. I just sent him an e-mail.

Russ apologized for the delay and sent it off Oct 6, I received it a few days ago and the sample is very close to the factory color.

Mike told me that the samples were mailed on Oct 2 and I know that Mike lives in the east coast; but as today {Oct 14} I'm still waiting for the samples...

Yes, TXGOOD was the man on PFF, however he apparently moved to Facebook and his last post on *this* thread was in 2021.

Besides, I don't want to add cupholders, only to add some padding for my shifting arm....

I received both Russ and Mike color swatches....


After days of looking at the samples and the dark gray / black console, I decided on Mike's #21 in leather for some contrast.
I ordered it and paid Mike so I'm now waiting as Mike makes it....

I received MrMikes console saddle the other day...


I 'love it' and the color is 'perfect' as I wanted some contrast...

I have quite happily used the Mr Mike's cover for a number of years. Russ also makes a high quality cover according to what I have seen posted.
