Arm rest replacement



I purchased an OEM armrest replacement on Ebay. I was quoted $600 for a replacement from my dealer as it’s not covered under warranty. After informing them that I already had the replacement part, they proceeded to quote me $490 for the labor for replacement. I can’t find any information online on the replacement process. Please help!

It looks pretty straight forward, It looks like you have to remove the panel on the rear of the center consol (where the vents are) and there are two screws with springs. Don't know what you paid on eBay but they are $97.45 us from https://www.oemacuraparts.com/v-2023...center-console.

yeah no kidding lmao. Was able to install in less than 10 minutes using a trim tool. Feels like they wanted no part in the job and quoted me that.
