A floor console includes a climate control unit. A bracket of the floor console unit includes an interior surface facing the climate control unit and an exterior surface opposite the interior surface. An armrest is supported by the bracket and is moveable relative to the bracket. A gas spring extending from a first end connected to the armrest to a second end connected to the exterior surface of the bracket. The connection of the second end of the gas spring to the exterior surface of the bracket reduces packaging constraints for the climate control unit on the interior surface of the bracket.
