I am sure these are LONG gone... Who made the pads that stuck to the Interstate's passenger speaker pods to keep a woman's elbows comfy? Any still left in someone's part bin that they want to sell?  |

Never seen them anywhere (unless you got a truck with them on it). My Interstate has one.... the other blew off somewhere. I never realized they were elbow pads (mystery solved).... I never ride back there.  You could always call Pinwall. Tell them the value of a trunk remains the same with or without them, and you'll make it worth their while to pull some for you. (I'll take a left if they have one LOL) |

I had gotten a set with a bulk purchase of misc items, and sold them.
I see them on ebay from time-to-time. They do come up.

They were OE Honda accessories. If you could find an original valk accessory catalog, they would be in there. They would have been made by some unknown manufacturer and supplied only to Honda. |

Someone posted the OEM Accessory catalog.
It is Rear Speaker Armrest Pads 08U91-MBY-1A0 original cost $77.
Good luck finding any OEM items at the dealer.

I recently purchased a set of NOS from ebay or something. I put them on but the self adhesive apparently has dried out over the years and they were flopping in the wind. I was able to pull over and saved them. My point is - if you do manage to get a set, don't trust the peel and press adhesive even if they have not been used.

I secured mine with a product known as "Automotive Goop" - it's a trim adhesive which dries flexible. |

Had mine installed when I bought the bike new in March '99. They were getting loose a few years ago and I pulled them off, completely removed old adhesive, which was kind of a pain. I then used one of the special use 3M two sided tape and recovered most of the underside area, especially at the edges, and reinstalled. They have been holding really well since.

They are made of rubber, not foam as indicated in your classified. I bought a set of those a few years ago and had them on for her to enjoy the ride better. She liked them, a little more cushion but I think they were intended to let the music play thru while covered with arms. At least that is what I remember reading/hearing. I did move them to my newer IS, and they are holding well...but I did have to add some additional rubber adhesive when I first got em. Good luck in your search.....
