Driver's door armrest

I need to replace my driver's side door armrest on my 05MCS as the current one is cracked. I found a nice replacement in the junkyard, but have no idea how to remove the tiny torx screws that hold it on. They are on the back side of the door handle. Anyone ever replace one before?

If I remember correctly, you need to slide a trim tool between the pad and the handle proper then slide the pad forward ... see this video ...


Best of luck.

Motor On!
