OEM armrest elbow question

Hello guys,

I'm about to pull the trigger on the Toyota lhd oem armrest for the GT86.

Since it's raised a few cms I was wondering if it interferes in any way with your elbow while you're changing gears.

I never thought about this until I drove a substitute Toyota Auris during my last service and my elbow kept banging against the armrest, granted it is much higher placed than our armrest, but we sit lower and our console is higher so I wanted to know from the few people who have installed it too.

I don't want to be more confortable driving with one hand and right arm resting in the armrest, I like both hands in the wheel and just briefly go to the gear lever, I do feel aesthetically the car has a hole in the middle and would like to put the armrest there but won't do it if interferes with usability.

Thanks in advance for your kind replies.
Best regards.
