Just wanted to share my DIY, at home with basic tools, not-an-engineer, armrest solution. Leather upholstery sold separately.

First, I bought one of these, widely available on multiple online marketplaces as a universal armrest. Then I shaved off the plastic “wing”which is intended to keep the armest from falling into a seat crack, and filled in the hole in the plastic with epoxy.

Some sandwiched metal brackets, some more epoxy, one hole in the seat frame, a couple of nuts and bolts, and here you go. Full recline, no interference with parking brake or seat rails. The telescoping portion is easily removable if you need.

Hello,

An elegant solution indeed.

I am not sure why, but your adapter reminded me of the Planted brackets.
