Default Passenger armrests

Does anyone have a set of the passenger armrest mounted on their EG.
Saw this on eglidegoodies:

The mrs. thinks it would be very comfortable.
Heres a pic.

I ordered a set 1 year ago Feb and they are still waiting for production to come from somewhere in the East. I require the set that is for the Ultra with rear speakers. As I understand it, the model for bikes without the rear speakers is currently shipping.

Now they are saying the set I'm waiting for will ship in "July." We'll see...

A friend of mine had a set just like those on his Yamaha Venture. His wife loved them.

Had Kuryakyn's on my GW (opps I'm Bad) and the wife loved them (they swing out allowing access to the seating area) mounted a cup holder on them and she would sit back and read a book for hours while sipping on a cool one (?) - She saw these and I gave her a choice - Arm Rest or Rear Speakers...
TUNES WON OUT!!!

Oh I know .. my wife is with me 90% of the time and I like it that way. We are leaving with a group middle of next month for a 5 day ride to the Grand Canyon, Brice and Zion National Parks. We can't wait. Stay safe!!
