Console Armrest Repair Procedures

Replacement

Wear gloves to avoid cutting your hands.

When removing with a flat-blade screwdriver or removal tool, wrap the tools with protective tape to prevent damage to components. When removing interior trim components, use a plastic panel removal tool to avoid damaging the surface. Be careful not to bend or scratch the trim and panels.
