If I remember right it does sort of engage into the armrest using some plastic tabs. With a little creativity they can be repaired. Just get the panel off and go from there.
Worst case scenario is the larger tabs that "hang" the door panel/armrest to the car are snapped, that is a challenge, usually then you need new/used parts to repair. After removing all the hardware the panel is pulled upwards to disengage these tabs. mechanics not experienced in MB's will try prying the panels off assuming there are snap-in clips, but there aren't any, they end up snapping plastic.
