Default Need help identifying armrest parts

Hey guys. My center console armrest lid doesn’t shut unless I place my arm on it. I saw a post about an armrest problem but it was for some other issue.

Since i I bought the car this way, I have no point of reference as how it’s supposed to look, but it appears that a piece is broken. Can anyone tell me what this piece is called so I can try to order a new one? Or if a post exists on this, please redirect me. Thanks!!

here is the top of the lid where it looks like something is broken.



and here is the bottom that it’s supposed to click into.

these might help, a bit confusing.....I did the DIY cupholder as mine was broken, paid about $132 eBay, and have seen it new for as low as $90 (DOH!)

Thanks.

Hmm, I don't think I'd need to remove the center console cover to fix something on the lid. Unless something is broken on the bottom part that the lid attaches too. Trying to determine from the diagram, but it doesn't look like the lid part is highlighted, unless I'm missing something. I need to find a picture of a normally functioning one opened (top and bottom like in my pics) so I can compare.

I think it's this one...
Mine has a small issue as well but I haven't addressed it yet.
