View Full Version : Has anyone bought seat covers?
DANGEROUS 09-16-2009, 12:03 PM i dont like my LX-S seats, has anyone purchased any seat covers that were flush, i dont like wrinkles.
i wanted to reupholster my seats, but dont have a few grand. so im going the much cheaper route.:yes:
fLYaZZbRASilenO 09-16-2009, 12:10 PM imo, if u just get seat covers..it will look cheaper and cheesy..like some u buy at autozone if thats what kind ur talking about...
leeleee 09-16-2009, 12:11 PM You can find katzkin sets on ebay for pretty cheap every once in a while. The only thing is that you would have to install it yourself to save some money. There was one user that bought a set and installed it himself a while back. Wrote a nice long thread about it to.
fLYaZZbRASilenO 09-16-2009, 12:12 PM look for some rsx-s seats..my boy just got some for $200 for the 2 front seats and backseats..put it in his 93 civic 2door track car..those r some comfy leather seats...look on craigslist or something
leeleee 09-16-2009, 12:12 PM imo, if u just get seat covers..it will look cheaper and cheesy..
Exactly. Your not going to be able to find a cheap slip on cover that looks better than stock.

thats why i want them flush.
my bro bought some for his 7th gen sedan, and it was disgusting.
fLYaZZbRASilenO 09-16-2009, 12:17 PM im actually looking for rsx-s seats myself..not that big of a deal if i dont find em though..our seats arent that bad
Domtenn15 09-16-2009, 12:21 PM Seat covers!!! Do they still make those

... for family pets, adolescents, promiscuous teenagers, and sr' citizens! :naughty:
Hittman 09-16-2009, 12:52 PM I've seen some advertised thru costco by a company called "coverking (http://www.coverking.com/)". I believe some of them are made of neoprene, so they should fit snugly. Dunno about the style/look, though.
but those cost almost as much as katzkins

I like how you included "promiscuous teenagers."

nghanzo 09-17-2009, 02:20 PM mrbmwx5: looks good but quality doesnt seem too good, how much did you get the whole set for?
gvan1998: wow! those really look factory if I been in an accord with leather, I guess you get what you pay for, nice job
DANGEROUS 09-17-2009, 06:18 PM the ebay ones look okay, they're like 60 bucks. a decent price, and it doesnt look horrible. but they dont look like good quality.
HikaruAccord 09-17-2009, 06:46 PM fair.
mrbmwx5 09-18-2009, 06:25 AM mrbmwx5: looks good but quality doesnt seem too good, how much did you get the whole set for?
I konw the quality is not that good...$60 bucks what can i say :D
I do not care for the seat covers,i just need some thing to cover it while i have a little baby in the back seat so thing dont get to the real seat that all.
HikaruAccord 09-18-2009, 06:40 AM well I guess there is a huge difference for the purposes of getting an aftermarket seat cover, either you want to protect the stock seat OR you want something to look better than the stock.
In this case, it's protection.

Hi mrbmwx5
Does the installation of the seat cover require removing the seats and putting them back on? or do they just slide over neatly?
these covers are also available from amazon offer what is expected - protect the seats from stains and be easy to clean.
I am looking to get a beige color to match my interior.
Thank you

Just slide them over the front seats and rear back rest,but i did removed the rear bottom bench to completed the work.

Thank you for the quick reply
The ebay page says "to customize: cut holes to fit headrest, seatbelt, armrests.." did you have to do any of these?
Is the rear bottom bench easy to remove?
I have a 2009 Accord LXP, and have not figured out how to do that.

Did you get covers made specifically for the 8th gen coupe? I looked at black microfiber on their site and they only had up to 2006 for the accord coupe.
glen e 09-18-2009, 07:29 PM no - they have then for 2009..call them
shaun1 09-19-2009, 01:39 AM do they interfere with the seat airbags?
DANGEROUS 09-19-2009, 03:03 AM no - they have then for 2009..call them
