    Honestly, I highly doubt it is leather, Looks, feels, smells and wears like vinyl....

    Someone on this site can repair that for you. Do a search on 'arm rest' and you should find him. This was just brought up about month ago....

    If you open the console lid & pull straight up on it, it will come out at as assembly attached to the inner console liner. You will need to disconnect the power port that is in the center console to free the assembly. I had to replace my console lid when I bought my car due to it being cracked.

    Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

    MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.

    Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

    Rest In Peace:

    See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.

    IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.

    Are you sure? I had a new one put in (for free) because the hinge cracked and it sure smelled like real leather. I thought the steering wheels was also leather.

    I tried to lift my armrest up to remove the assembly... fought with it and it still didn't come out... am I missing something?

    Sorry, John, but the steering wheel and shift knob are also leather. I'm not sure about the console lid, but I *think* it's leather, too.

    The armrest should have screws holding the hinge onto console. They may be behind panel inside console.

    It does not. It is in with pop clips all the way around. I believe three on each side. Lift straight up - hard and fast. It will pop out and scare the hell out of you! I can't tell you how many I've removed for various reasons in quite a number of different Marauders..
