Do you want to remove the centre armrest on an Opel Meriva? Here’s how to take it out from the centre tunnel. Enter the vehicle, press the lever located above the centre armrest and unlock the plastic clips of the armrest.

When the clips are inside the armrest, you can pull it up. Remove the armrest from the centre tunnel. If you want to remove the sliding storage compartment inside the tunnel rail: press the lever under the handle and pull the piece upwards.

Remove it from the centre tunnel. To refit, perform the operation in reverse: insert the pieces into the tunnel and leave the release handle.
