 85GL. I pried off the little black plastic cover, beneath that is what looks
 like a hex-nut which the arm seems to rotate on. I've tried every allen
wrench
 I could locate in my toolbox, nothing fit, worse, it seems that I have to
 apply more pressure than the metal of the nut is going to stand.

remove the allen, slide the armrest off the post, then remove the smaller
allen head screws.
