Default Armrest / Console cover bending
The side of my armrest is bowing out and keeping the console lid from opening. Anyone have a quick fix for this other than buying a new cover?

Yes, raise the loose edge, peel out the excess foam and restick the cover with contact cement. Do this down the entire length of the hinged edge, Yes, you have to remove the console lid to do this.
