I need to replace my door panel armrest that is bubbling up.

Is it necessary for me to remove the entire panel for me to take the armrest off? How involved is the process?

Search an earlier thread here. Maybe a center armrest replacement thread. Someone got the leather door armrest pieces and did the job taking step by step pics. It's pretty involved-taking the whole door panel off. Probably not for everyone to try, unlike the center armrest, which is pretty simple.

I read that how to thread a while back. It was enough of an eye opener as to how much time/ labor is involved to do the armrest. I have taken off 8th Gen door panels myself before, so I know how to do it. I'd have to be really mod deprived and very desperate for something to do to take on that job. OP, take a pass on this one....not worth it.
