Why don’t they make early Barracuda 9” arm rest pads ?

Hi all.

I’m a bit confused.
I’ve been looking to replace my arm rest pads in my 65 Barracuda.
Never mind some places have the sizes wrong when looking for the right pads, but it seems nobody makes rear 9” pads for my Barra.
Only 11” pads.

Is this because the smaller ones in the Barracuda were rare or something ? They only sell 11 inch pads which are quite long for the rear.

Just curious.

Layson's has them listed on Page 274 of their catalog

That never came up on Google.
Thanks very much.

Unfortunately they may have to wait at $134 US a pair. Honestly…..with postage, tax and conversion, by the time I got them they’d be over $300 AUD.
Your dollar is just so strong at the moment.

I think Jeff’s suggestion of a black set and dyeing is looking good.

It depend on what color your interior is. They make white ones that would be better to dye lighter colors. You may have issues dying black.
 
I should try these.
My only concern is being able to get a suitable red vinyl paint down here.

As for that EBay set, I did quite a few searches and never noticed those. Thanks.
I think the white set would be your best bet for Dyeing Peter. They are in pretty nice shape. Once you put a prom dress on them you would have a descent looking Sheila. Ill check my red set when I get Home.
 
Post a picture of the armrest pad with a ruler. I have a 3d printer file that may be useful here.
