Spent a little more time behind the wheel recently and my arm was beginning to get uncomfortable. So I fixed it with a cover, slips on and fits properly, doesn't look half bad either and it's fairly cheap.

Has just enough thickness to add without bulking up and creating a binding spot at the hinge and it's much more comfortable. Not exactly the same color but it passes my ocd test, must be getting old. :crazy:

Like idea. Does it just slip on? Says it doesn’t work as flip down workstation though. Not a huge loss for me.

Yep just slide it on, has elastic straps on the underside.

Says it does not work on the workstation cover, but the two armrests appear the same size to me. Is the issue that it will not allow the workstation to unfold? That is ok with me as I do not use the workstation.
Can anyone attest to it fitting a workstation armrest? I could not find information about that on the listing.

The particular white box brand one I got two years ago, is no longer available, but this is identical to the one I've got that allows for full worksurface functionality in my Lariat:

Finally put mine on and did a little testing. Works fine with a work table as long as you aren’t planning on using it, does indeed soften the elbow contact for road trips, and in the event my dog makes it past the barrier, seems like cheap insurance from permanent damage. Highly recommended!

Don't have that problem as my truck did not come with the workstation fold out. I Do have the fold down shifter though, seems odd to have one without the other.
