strange I'd have thought two competing companies would'nt be sharing a platform like that... I mean I could see a NA and a JM or a Euro firm sharing but not two JMs.

I have two OE pads for sale. Check out the classified section. Great mod. I did it myself and the ended up selling the truck. Worked like a charm for the week I had it installed.

Lol, no...thats just how Honda has them listed Grey, Tan & Beige. Trust me there is a big difference between the two. Tan will match the center console. Beige will pretty much match the seats (assuming you have beige seats).

that's nice work, man. i have been wanting to do this same thing since i've owned the truck. passengers are always trying to encroach on my elbow room, and there's only room for one elbow on that stock pad: driver's elbow. (ha)

i was considering looking for one from a frontier. i had one and thought the lid might adapt. but it's a firm rubber pad. this one looks cushy.

this is perfect for those of us with the rear seat heater who can't swap the whole console. thanx for posting your results man! i'm gonna track one down asap!

so let's review... 98-02 Isuzu Rodeos and 98-02 Honda Passports contain these taller and wider pimped out armrests.

Look for beige or prefereably tan or gray interior on the wrecked vehicle so pad will match 4Runner center console color. At worst the color could be re-dyed to match...

No special hardware required. Awesome mod !!

Have a safe Halloween! Don't lose more than an hour!
