Mine is broke at the hinge, and my parts truck has one. But how do you get the hinge out of the armrest?? :confused:

It been a couple of years but, there is an oval-shaped plastic piece on both sides of the console, in the top rear. Most of the time, the seat backs are in the way so you cant see them. Carefully pry them off and there should be two nuts or bolts on each side. I think they are 10 mm. Remove them and the armrest bracket should come out.
 






On my 92, I had to cut the hinges with a dremmel tool. Ford sells a kit with new hinges and metal brackets.
