How to Remove the Armrest in a 1994 Astro Van
- 1). Inspect the armrest. Look inside the small storage compartment and find the Phillips screw.
- 2). Remove the screw with a Phillips screwdriver. Set it to the side for safekeeping.
- 3). Grasp the top edge of the arm rest. Slide it firmly toward the rear of the door panel to remove it from the Astro's door.
- 1). Inspect the side of the armrest. Locate the small seam where the armrest connects to the door panel.
- 2). Insert your trim pry tool into the seam on either side of the armrest. Push the handle of the tool down to pry the armrest up. The side you are on should pop up fairly easily.
- 3). Move to the other side of the armrest. Insert the trim pry tool into the seam and push the handle downward to pop up the other side of the armrest.
- 4). Lift the armrest up to remove it from the Astro's door panel.
