i find they get in the way with a 4 speed, but it's a personal thing. in addition, it makes it interesting to use the brake when you need it.

There is a few different models available. I like the single one that mounts at the carpet, to the side of the console.

I use one that attaches to the console but still lets you use the e-brake. Works, but it's always against your leg.
