Armrest

After 182,000 miles, my armrest has basically lost all of it's support. I was thinking of removing the cover and replacing the worn-out foam with memory foam. Has anyone done this?

Center console armrest? It's a part you can replace the entire thing with any 01-03 CL & TL armrest. I have a 03TL in my car I swapped in.
DIY is in the FAQ.

I used the DIY Thread below to re-cushion my arm rest.

https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-2004-2008-93/re-cushioning-flaccid-armrest-639974/

The process went well and it was inexpensive if you care to give it a try.
