  1. 2019+ Mazda 3 Appearance & Interior
    I just bought a 2020 M3 Premium, and am still learning about the various functions and etc. One problem I've found is that the center armrest will not slide forward or backward at all. The finger latch under the front edge of the armrest works, so I am able to lift up the armrest and get stuff...

    How is it that for a "Sporty fun to drive car" that the armrest doesnt slide or lean forward to allow easier grabbing of the manual shifter, while giving the elbow somewhere to rest?

    I've been searching for a way to tweak the armrest so that it slides forward a bit. Right now, my elbow rests on the cushioned edge of the drink holder because my seat has to be too far forward for my elbow to reach the armrest. Raising it a bit too would be even better. I feel like I am...

    Hey guys - the short armrest is driving me nuts on my 2018 GT auto. I can’t get to a comfortable driving position. Is there a longer replacement that I could swap it out with?

    I have a sedan with out the armrest in the back seat and wanted to switch it out and put in one with a armrest. Is it possible to do that if I find one? And does it matter if it's a hatch or sedan rear seat?

    Selling my black leather with green stitching shift boot and brake boot, along with a black leather and green stitching armrest cover all made by redline goods. Shift and brake fit perfectly, but I wasn't competent enough to install the armrest cover. :( Looking to sell all 3 pieces for only...

    Hello from Puerto Rico! I'll do my best with my english! This is my first post, and my first Mazda (2015 3 iGT Automatic). I have an issue with the armrest, as it seems that the hinge broke or something. I have googled it and it seems that it uses a metal pin to keep it in place, and that this...

    I currently have the isport 2016 Mazda 3. And the center armrest is very uncomfortable. Does Mazda sell just the leather armrest like the ITouring models have? Thanks

    I had my iPod connected to the USB under the armrest (like I always have it), turned my car on and no music. iPod turns on and works, connects, iPod recognizes Mazda and on the dash it says IPOD as usual, but nothing else (like Song Title, Folder, etc) does not appear on the dash. Do I just try...

    2014 sT hatch here, 18.5K miles So my armrest started making weird noises and I wanted to see if anyone else has the same. Basically when my arm (or any weight) is on the rest, when the weight is pulled off, the plastic sort of clicks and makes noise. This just started happening about 2-3...

    I'm considering buying a 2014 Mazda3 i Touring hatchback. My right elbow hits the left edge of the center console lid, which sticks out on that side. I was thinking I could replace it with the mirror image lid from a right-hand drive Mazda3. 1. Do you think that would work? 2. If so, thoughts...

    Has anyone removed the front door panels yet? If so, is the padded armrest able to be removed easily from the rest of the panel through the rear of the panel? I have checked out the workshop manual and couldn't get a clear answer from the diagrams. Thanks.

    I searched and didn't come across anything. Has anyone swapped the rear seat back from the non arm rest seat to one with the armrest? I know our 2012 non armrest is a split folding type, does the seat with the fold down armrest still fold down? Would it be possible to just swap the larger side...

    Does anyone have a parts diagram or know if the sliding armrest from the 2010+ S models swap into the I models? I found them for sale here: but I'm not sure if it's a bolt on affair. Anyone ever done it?

    The only problem I have with the 3’s armrest console is that it’s a black hole at night. Even your head gets in the way of the dome light when you need to see all the way down. That and needing something to do, I set about to add light to inside the console that would go on/off when you...
