PIT66 Center Console Armrest Lid with Latch Compatible with Ford Mustang 2005-2009 Replacement 5R3Z6306024AAC Black

Must admit I was skeptical of this center console lid as I had already ordered two previously from other distributors that were falsely labeled. This one not only is the hard console cover, but it’s cheaper than those cloth covers. This is almost an exact one for one replacement of the OEM part, complete with all the underside pieces that originally came with the truck. Ordered out of hope, and received it within a week. My original order, the replacement piece had a slit down the leather, which looked like someone at the warehouse took a box cutter to the top of the box and hit the leather as well, but when I reached out to the seller, they sent me a replacement immediately and did not require the first one to be shipped back. Saved me time and hassle and it’s appreciated. The ONLY downfall is that the latch is off an 1/8” probably which doesn’t allow you to just push it down to latch, but maybe I should be in the habit of using the button to help close it regardless, so it’s not even a downfall. If you landed on this part looking for a replacement center console lid, look no further…this is the one

Just to remember once you snap it back together don't forget your insert pad as you can see the dip in leather that's because i dint do it right, its comfort but not important. I forgot mine and I glued my buty piec back on because it broke when taking it off. BE very careful when removing the snap in place beauty section. ALSO, its a little bit shorter than the factory and you might need to sew on a piece of cloth to help hold I dod not and I used a electric stapler. would not penetrate with hand stapler.

The material is great, seems very heavy duty and I like it much better than the original. If you look at my pictures you'll probably think, what is this guy talking about, it fits perfect! It does fit perfect, but the problem is getting it to fit perfectly. It's a nightmare job. I had to use every bit of the strength in my fingers, hands and forearms to get that thing pulled tight. I think about 90% of people could not do the job, maybe 95%. It was so freaking tight I returned the first piece and got a replacement piece because I was convinced it was cut too small. The second piece was identical.What I would recommend is bringing the material to an auto apolstery place and see what they would charge to install in. If you could pay like $50 to have it installed it would be sooooo worth it.I wanted to give this less stars, but the material is so nice and in the end it fit great, with a lot of struggling, so I had to give it 4 stars. If this thing was literally 1/4" longer I think it would of been tremendously easier to install.

So easy to install and I used an electric staple gun to attach the cover not glue, That’s how the original was held in place and it took about an hour to complete the entire project. I can understand how some people might have difficulty if they aren’t mechanically inclined. Just have to stretch it out and smooth it with your hands then staple it down. I used a pliers to pull and stretch it until it was smooth then shot some staples in to the plastic base to hold it and worked my way around. It looks perfect and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome.

Overall good product. I did have to switch out thee complete lock mechanism from my old one to the new one

It does not fit even if you pull and try to stretch it out and states that it fits a Dodge ram 1500 2005+also the wrinkles because it comes folded can be taken even with hair blower(the reason I didn’t return it is because I threw away the package)

First the positives: looks great, seems like good quality. Will hopefully last a long time.Negatives: latch didn't match up so would never completely close. I even tried swapping the underside components with no success. Finally I determined the hinge was the issue. I replaced the hinge with the original hinge and that worked. Not a solid latch as the original was but good enough that it doesn't shake loose.I rate it between 3 and 4 stars because of that issue. Otherwise it's a great replacement. If you have latch issues just swap the hinge and see if that makes a difference.

Good quality and fits like a glove. Installation was easy and straightforward.
