    I think you can still get them from BMW. I pulled a couple of random parts numbers on RealOEM and it looks like they are still available. Pricey however.

    While Katzkin has gone up in their pricing, I find them to be far better quality than OEM.

    I wonder if you can DIY Katzkin like you used to be able to do. I know it was cheaper back then, too.

    I bought my armrest cover, shift and brake boots from an English company selling on eBay. $42 with shipping. A lot cheaper than through a dealership even with a BMWCCA discount.

    I'll have to take a photo of the armrest and brake boot. My seats could use new leather too. I was thinking about using my original armrest cover to patch my drivers seat. The base fake leather interior seems to hold up better--though the black vinyl shift/brake boots didn't.
