Instructions for Removing the Armrest

Model: Toyota Prius MK 1 - Years 2004-2009
Part: Center console tunnel

The armrest is actually a covering cushion for the glove compartment located along the central tunnel; to remove this cushion, simply unscrew the fixing screws located beneath the plastic support and detach it. Once the cushion is removed, you can carry out the repair by gluing the covering along the edges using upholstery glue: apply the glue to both sides (fabric and support), wait a few minutes for it to dry to a matte finish, and then stick it back together before proceeding with the installation in the vehicle.
