2009 Honda Civic Seat Cover

[Derrick28]

Hi guys,

I am thinking of getting the seat cover for my Civic (front and back), just wondering what is good out there....i don't like sheepskin ! :-).
Just after some good quality material can last upto a few years.

Cheers :-)

if u have an 09 civic these covers will fit but you should NOT fit them.
they are not even an option!

reason is if u have a side impact the airbags wont go off properly with the seat cover on.
U if u dont care about being safe get the covers!

Yeah got told the exact same thing when we bought our Civic at the beginning of the year. Kinda sucks but oh well. Apparently there's a couple of ebay vendors though that make it so if the side airbags go off it still works fine

so is there any option to the 09 Civic seats to be covered??..

[UNLS1]

no options at all!


they only way is the ones off ebay....
but id hate to have an accident and for the airbag not to deploy properly coz ive got an aftermarket seatcover! Now there is a good court case waiting to happen!

but ive seen an 09 Sport with leather seat cover, so how did they fit it on the sport model? im guessing that the vtil airbags is the same as the sports...

those arent seat covers. they've been retrimmed in leather

[fitme]

[fitme]

^^lol my mistake ....i mean leather trimmed..

so is it possible to retrimmed the non-leather seats via dealer??

sure is! used to do it, but now we refer the customer to the leather trimmer direct as they have to meet all the safety requirements when trimming a car with side airbags and give a safety cert.

yeh safety first. I'd never cover my seats, but have thoguht about DIY retrimming too... seen it done.

prefacelift fd1 vti ftw!... no side airbags on the seats so no problem lol.
