Hall might be producing new, fiberglass armrests that need to be 
upholstered, which is perhaps reasonable if you are having a $10K leather interior 
made, but not really reasonable for you.   Loads of standard two-pod dashboards 
and armrests are lying around in other vendors shops, if Hall doesn't have 
them.   Just pick up the phone and call around.   Also, guys like Kirk 
Evans, Mike Mayberry and Ron McCall are likely to be able to help out.

Good luck!

     As for the door rest, she made a point to say theirs are
     fiberglass!   So is
     anyone familiar with the arm rest Hall sells?  Wouldn't the
     fiberglass be
     the core under the vinyl and padding?   Communications via emails,
     she was
     not sure!
