How to replace the armrest on an Opel Vivaro?

Model: Vauxhall Vivaro MK 2 - Years 2014-2019
Part: Checks and maintenance

To replace the armrest on the Opel Vivaro, lever off the circular cover at the base of the armrest using a tool. Once removed, you will find the nut underneath. This can now be completely detached from the side of the seat, allowing you to insert the new armrest. Secure it in place with the nut and reposition the cover. After fitting, check that the armrest can be raised and lowered correctly.
