How do you disassemble and repair the Opel Vivaro armrest?

Model: Vauxhall Vivaro MK 1 - Years 2001-2014
Part: Seat

We only need a flathead screwdriver to disassemble and possibly repair the armrest of the Opel Vivaro. The time required is minimal and it is possible to do without the help of a workshop, as shown in the video above. With the aforementioned screwdriver, leverage is applied to the plastic cover of the armrest attachment point, removing it, and then leverage is applied to the inner clip, freeing the armrest and removing it from the axis in which it is inserted. The job is perfectly successful, now we can move on to various interventions, such as reupholstering the fabric, washing, etc.
