Default question about replacing center armrest leather

The center armrest leather is in dire need of replacement thus, wondering if it is DIY friendly or should I take it to the shop? Anyone replaced or installed just the leather armrest portion? Thanks in advance.

Unless you know someone with a heavy duty sewing machine that can stitch leather, you better find a local shop which should be able to source the leather.

Cheaper alternative...... Find a salvage yard with one.
