How to install front Armrest? (95 E320 Coupe)

This is my first post in these forums so i hope someone can help

I have a 95 E320 Coupe and the only part of the interior that is damaged is the center armrest that doubles as storage/carphone plug

I went to the local dealership to find out how much it would be to buy one and they quoted me $1500 so i had been looking online and finally found one on eBay that is the same color as my interior (tan/shroom) for $250 in perfect condition from a reputable seller

In the item description it says it is an easy 10 minute install but i can not find any install instructions online

Does anyone here know how to go about installing one of these? any help is appreciated

Thanks in advance

Here are 2 pictures of the item for reference

do you need to know how to install it to the seat, or do you also need to know how to install all of the phone stuff inside of it?

I need to know how to install it to the seat but if the phone connection is more complicated than i think then that would be helpful too, i figured it was just a single cat5 type connection inside the underneath of the armrest plastic like it is under the seat

Thanks man, that should work, i am still waiting for the part to come via UPS so i will let you know how it went once i have it mounted

Cant wait to get the old worn one out of there, i also just snapped the 2nd check strap on the lid this afternoon when i was washing the car so it started rattling . . .
