C5 armrest

Unread post by swiveleyedgit »

Hi all, has anyone any idea of how the armrest fixes into the side of the seat? The passenger one is in the boot at the moment, been there since I got the car, and I'd like to try and refit it. I can see that the steel pin has to go into the slots inside the seat but I have no idea how to do it. The diagram on the Citroen Service page shows the toothed bit separate from the spigot on the actual armrest but it all appears to be in one piece on my one. Is there brute force and ignorance involved here?, I'm normally quite good at that...

I can't remember exactly but it's something like a light bulb, push it in at the hinge, turn to the left and out it pops.
