Default loose armrest, how do I get the plastic cap off?

The drivers side armrest is loose on my '04 RX330 and i was wondering how to get the black plastic cap off? I know once I can get that off there should just be a nut to tighten up and away I go. On the otherhand I don't want to force the thing off and end up breaking the plastic cap. Any thoughts?

It should just pop off. Try it and be slow.

Default Armrest

The cap just pulls off. I have had mine loose 2 or 3 times. When I installed this wide armrest. And to tighten it up.

Wow that extra wide armrest is looking good. Might consider it.
