Mark, Is it just an armrest, or is there any storage inside it?
Thanks.

It has small storage inside. If you look at your SX4, there are actually several colors and textures on the interior. That the armrest texture doesn't match the plastic console texture beneath seems no big deal to me, given it is a cheap car with lower grade interior materials to begin with. I think it looks fine.
A suggestion. Do order it off ebay. It is the same armrest as the dealer gets and it is easy to install. Several vendors. Add up the pay it now price with the shipping, and order from the vendor with the lowest overall price. That way, you will get it for less than half the dealer cost.

Can the armrest storage hold CDs? If not, what were they thinking?

Couldn't tell you what they were thinking. The design has several silly features, including the fact that if you are not really big and drive with the seat way back, it is mostly unusable as an armrest. And if you move the seat back to where you can use it, then the door arm rest becomes useless. But I'm glad I got one. I keep my little mileage notebook in there, plus a pen, sunglasses and gas receipt and coupons. If you take out the inner liner (easy enough) CD cases will fit, but they sort of rattle around. I don't bother.

i have been looking at the armrest for the sx4 i found one on ebay. but when i asked the seller about how it installs into the car he recommended just double sided tape??? wtf i read your post and it seems like there is an actual mounting procedure with bolts? if so where did you get your armrest? because i work at a suzuki dealership and in our parts department they didn't even know the sx4 had an armrest package... any info would be very helpful.

i would prefer an email instead of a reply on this forum considering ... And we would prefer keeping the exchange here. To do otherwise deprives our members of valuable information and tends to defeat the purpose of a forum.

That is alright. He won't see your response, because he doesn't know how to get back here. I emailed him and answered his question (it is installed with four self-tapping screws...easy as pie).

I just received mine, ordered from dealerfit.com. Someone on another site said it was easy as pie to install. I must be very mecahnically inept because to me it seems hard with all the brackets and bolts. I must admit I haven't read all the instructions really carefully, but I may have to get someone to do it for me. Does it go over the original console? If so, do those metal brackets show? Or do you remove the original console cover? If someone has already installed one, please let me know. Thanks.
