Get in the car and lift the armrest as if you need to retrieve something from the compartment. Now, as shown in the video, you can unscrew the four screws holding it in place using a cross-head screwdriver.

This will allow you to remove the underlying plastic cover and unscrew the other four screws that are now exposed. Once done, you can remove the armrest for cleaning or even replace it with a non-worn or more aesthetically pleasing one. For reassembly, simply proceed in reverse order, ensuring the armrest moves correctly.

Nothing could be easier!
