    I wanted the arm rests to match the Wet Okole seat covers. I contacted Wet Okole and they said they would sell me a yard of neoprene mat. for $60+(cant remember exact amount). On Ebay I bought used neoprene workout shorts for $14, decal $8. Cut up the shorts, brought them to alterer to sew on patches for $17. Did the install myself. Came out to approx. $22 a door with can of spray addhesive. Think it came out o.k. More pics. of how I did it are in my gallery. Can't figure out how to put multiple pix. on a post yet.
