Arm Rest Removal

[Lance Link]

I can't help gilding the lily a little since I am flying less and saving so much gas money.  I want to get sheepskins for the front seats, and I don't want to put the arm rest back after I install them.  To remove the arm rest, it looks like I just take the screws out of the back panel of the seat, and that'll get me to the fastener that holds the thing on.  Is that correct?  Any danger zones or pitfalls?  Any help will be appreciated!

Remove the back panel of the seat will get to the nut.  The bolt head is in the armrest, you may have to remove upholstery to get to it and a thin wall socket to go in the hole. The armrest in mine always seemed to be in the way.  No danger zones or pitfalls.

Thanks very much David.  That sounds easy enough!

From the IPC.  Remove the button plug from the arm rest, use a socket and long extension to remove the nut.  No need to disassemble the seat.
