    Central armrest removal

    Hi guys. Can anyone please advise me on how to remove the front center armrest on a 2012 Accord euro. There are 2 visible screws, but the armrest still remains firmly fixed when these screws are removed. I need to remove this armrest to send it off to an upholsterer.
