Is there anyway of taking it out? It has this little rod that goes through it and is bend so that it won't come out, is there any other way of taking it out? I need to do some painting

Also, instead of making another topic I'll just put it in here, does the armrest come out? And if so is there anyway of taking it apart to where the little padded vinyl thing is off and it is just the bare cup holders?

Thanks in advance

 

I think you can remove the door handle but, I'm not positive. As for the foam arm pad, I think it's attached to the door panel assembly.
