Just aquired a very low mileage - almost perfect 740iL (2K)... I need to find a vendor for armrest covers (leather)... Any suggestions out there???

to the werkz! i'm not familiar with the 7 series. Someone may chime in. Check out the forum sponsors they might have something. Good luck.

Thx Steve... I'll have been trying the sponsors - to no avail... I will keep trying though...

Well I took a look around and it looks like you can get a new armrest. Is it the center console one you are looking for.
Check
realoem.com enter the last eight of your vin number then hit browse parts / vehicle trim / center console storing partition for part numbers.
then check
pelicanparts.com
or
autohausaz.com to purchase.

Kind of a 'round about way... But, if it works then I'm not complaining... Thx again...
I will come back if it does not work...

I just wanna say that I am a first time user of this site (as of 1537 hours today) and a new (first time) BMW owner as well... My first experience has been nothing less that satisfying - Thanks to steve & johnny, I found the part that I needed within a matter of 1.5 hours... I think I will be on this site a whole lot from now on... THX GUYS!!!
