Hi. New to the group, but not the first Vauxhall I've owned (by far). Just picked up a new-to-me 2016 Mokka Techline CDTI with ultra-low mileage and mint condition. Very pleased with it overall, but the armrest is about as much use as a chocolate fire guard. Was looking online at the Armster range (I had one in my Zafira) and wondered if anyone had fitted one?

The Armster S and Armster 2 fit to the centre console, so I wondered if it made getting to the handbrake awkward? And can you still use the centre console cubby? 

The Armster 3 directly replaces the existing armrest but is wider, has storage, and is more adjustable. Anyone got one? Any good?  

Thanks in advance.

Answering my own question, just incase anyone else is considering the Armster 2 or S. I took the plunge and ordered the Armster 2 from Amazon. Quite pricy at £112 (seen it at £91 elsewhere, but wanted to be able to return if fit wasn't good) but good quality and good features. Unfortunately it isn't a good fit; you would have to be a contortionist to be able to use the handbrake whilst the armrest was down (the handbrake actually touches the bottom of the armrest when pulled up). When armrest is in up position it wasn't far enough back to be out of the way - but may be ok if you have shorter legs! 
Sent back to Amazon next morning for full refund. Will plod-on with the standard armrest. 🤔
