do i have the wrong centre console?
mjmallia:
My GTI came like yours without an armrest. They are easy to retrofit.
You can do just the rear arm rest part, but to complete the mod properly and make the rear vents work in the arm rest, you will also need the air vent pipe that fits under the main centre console section. It will connect to the a blanked off hose up behind the Ash tray area and the other end to a pipe in the arm rest if left not taken out already.

This may help

Note there are a couple of arm rest types also. One is just a cubby hole and the other allows for a cd changer or MDI unit which is what I opted for with my RCD510 DAB. The MDI unit also has a small storage area

I already have a damaged one of those aftermarket arm rests in the boot from the last owner. I was just seeing what I could do or if he had knackered part of the arm rest at some time and fitted a standard one in?
