As Keith said the screws pass through the door panel to nut serts on the door itself.
However the the door panel is also slotted and the arm rest has "tangs" on it that pass through the the panel and hook into it then the screws are added.
Aftermarket(repro)arm rests do not have these and rely only on the screws.
