To install the armrest on the Opel Astra, insert the corresponding armrest into the storage compartment located on the centre console, behind the handbrake. Position the support bracket and secure it with the appropriate screws.

Once the armrest is secured with the designated bolts, lower and raise it to ensure it does not interfere with the handbrake's movement and does not cause any issues while driving. To remove it, simply detach the top part of the armrest from the bracket.
