My FL5 Alcantara armrest cover seems to be attracting lots of dirt and dust. Are there any leather/soft touch plastic replacement solutions out there? Does the armrest cover from a non Type R civic fit our cars? Thanks all!

why not just clean it once in a while. Sonax, a brush, done.

And then in a few years just get a new one to replace it, it can't cost all that much

Hard to argue....I've never had suede material and somehow my brain immediately went to "Replace it!"

I can personally endorse Dr. Beasley's microsuede cleaner & the protectant. It's best to have a good leather brush too. It works very well.... I had gotten suntan lotion on my seat and it brushed right out.

the sonax stuff is excellent. just clean with a moist microfiber, then spray the sonax and clean with that, let it dry then hit it with a brush to get the fibers to stand up again. That stuff is magic

Gotta moisturize that right elbow--just because you can't see it, doesn't mean it doesn't need it.

I think the ITS armrest is a perfect match for the FL5 and it’s leather in a variety of colors
