Re: Cloth to leather seats

EL seats would bolt in, but hard to find. rsx seats would probably be the easiest way to get leather seats.

Re: Cloth to leather seats

Your best bet may be to find a Katzkin dealer. They're pricey, but high quality leather covers that'll fit like OEM. I've seen many of them in person, and unless I was told, I would have said they were OEM seats.

edit:
Like es2 beater said, 1.7ELs would be a great option, but those were only in the Canada market.

RSX fronts, only 3 of the bolts are gonna line up. You have to enlarge one to get it to bolt down. Rears requires some cutting and upholstery work to fit.

Re: Cloth to leather seats

I've been hearing great things about Katzkin and that would be an easy way to get leather seats installed in your Civic for a decently low price. Plus they come with a 3-year warranty. I found a page on their website where they talk about adding leather seats to the Honda Civic.

Did you already get your seats upgraded?

You can see it here: https://katzkin.com/

Where yours is a 2002 you'll want to check with them that they can install seats on it. You could probably just ask on their website chat or something.

I'd still check with them because they might be able to work on it. You never know.
