    Center console arm rest

    2 options. u can lift up the arm rest and take out all the screws along the sides, this will lift off the "leather" part. From there, you can drill through the plastic and into the wood. Make sure u dont crack the plastic. or you can use liquid nails. goes on just like glue and does the trick
