got myself a accord vti. missed out on the leather seats offered with the vti-s models... was considering gettin leather retrim/seat covers just for the advantages of leather (and the pimp factor ofcourz :D)

would it be at all possible to rip some seats outta another accord from a wreakers and replace my current ones with em? i dont think there are any side air bags, so hopefully shouldnt be too complicated

i don't see why not esp if the seats are from a CG as well

however i don't see many CGs in wreckers where I am (Perth), thats prob cuz they can't get any in from japan

If you wanted leather that badly you should have waited until you found a vtis.

Full retrim would be 3-6 grand roughly.

It's also highly unlikely that you will get them cheap from the wreckers, I don't think they are that stoopid.

damn, was hoping i'd get lucky and find some at a pick'n'payless or sumfin, cant see what they'd do with em if not let sum1 pull em out themselves.

could any1 point me in the right direction as far as removing the seats? i can only spot half the nuts for the front seats (some plastic is covering the other half), and i'm clueless on how to remove the rear seat.
