Armrest lid

The cover is pulled loose from the side of my lid too, and it looks like the plastic is actually busted along the edge. I'd love to find a BLACK lid to replace it, or hear about how anyone has repaired theirs.

Yeah i love those seats, they're pretty rare too from what i've heard, i just wish they would have put an armrest in too! i heard it was because it was a sport package they felt the armrest would get in the way of shifting, i guess they changed their mind on later years. Is yours a 5spd. manual also?
