The guy with this ebay auction claims that these arm rest pads are original and had the vinyl stapled on the backside from the factory. Anyone else have original arm rest pads with stapled rather than glued-on vinyl?

Here's a link to the auction:

On my 71 convt. they are glued in but I'm not 100% sure they where originals. My interior was green originally but black when I got it and I have no way to know if he recovered or replaced with originals in black. I guess that wasn't any help at all was it?

I just replaced them on my -69. The originals were glued and had a sheet metal bottom, but the new (repros) have plastic bottom and are stapled. That's not saying that these are not legit though. I'd think this is something that can change even within a model year.
