Just purchased a 2014 AWD Touring Sky Blue three days ago. This is my first Mazda and first non Chevy vehicle, so far I'm loving it. My only issue is that the center arm rest is way to low for me to be comfortable on long trips. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks

Another alternative (if you're not married to the "gotta sit as high as possible so that I can see over traffic" notion) is to simply lower the seat. That's what I've done.

Thanks. I have lowered the seat as low as it can go. I have found some cushions online for center consoles but none that are specific for CX5. I was hoping someone on the forum had found a solution so I could avoid the trial and error process. (hand)

Well I had the same problem. I came across a cheap option on eBay : http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=200544506535&index=1&nav=SEARCH&nid=23586884842
Does the job and fits decent especially for the price.

For that price, I will try it. Thank you
