Honda service advice staff told me that you can not put any seatcovers on their Euro seats. If you do they may explode out the back of the seat if your lucky , if your not , they can explode out the front of the seat.

I wouldn't put any on anyhow as I already have cloth seats, although I always wondered what would happen to the side airbags if you did put some on though ! :!:

What do you mean they could explode? Doesn't seatcovers affect your SRS airbags??

Euro 's side airbags are mounted on side of front seats rather than inside door penal, therefore any thing on their way (including seat covers) will definitely interfere with the inflation of airbags.
Unless Honda makes genuine honda Euro seat cover which is compatible with airbags. Like those factory fit bull bar for 4WD which still can activate airbags on frontal impact.

If my side airbags could explode any sec, I better put a set of seat cover on to protect myself. and I probably need heavy duty / bullet proof ones. :D
Just kidding

Wouldn't the sar bags just rip right through the seat covers? But anyway, asif you need seat covers :P I have seat covers to hide a nice tear in the driver side seat. On topic... I think alot of seat covers have the stitching on the side where the airbag is right? So I guess it's a weak spot anyway.
