So I bought a pretty nifty center console for the micra but I needed to remove the armrest - No problem. So I thought.
After removal, there's still a shaft sticking out far enough to strike the new console. I don't care much about the hole in the fabric as I'll patch that and I'm getting seat covers. But has anyone removed the shaft?
If so, could you tell me how to go about it.

Thanks!

UPDATE: had to grind the shaft off. See:
