    Removing center console/armrest thing

    Hey I'm trying to remove the armrest thing in a 01 Corolla. I know there are 2 bolts inside in the bottom that need to be taken off. Anyone able to take these off with any regular tools cause I can't really fit a wrench in there or produce enough torque with my own hands to open them. Just wondering how others opened it.

    That's what you'll need. How else do you think they bolted it in?
