Leather seats suck. They are cold in the cold, and super hot in the sun

- though this is true it doesnt answer the question. . . ill say this, ive never seriously considered pputting leather in my civic [:'(] so i really dont know. when dealing with things like this its never what you know, but who you know. theres several people i could call and get some reliable quotes on upholstry work if i needed to. just ask around some local shops and dont forget to make friends! end.

They sell like custom leather seat covers on eBay that are made custom for each type of car's seats. They have ones that you remove the stock cover and then like sew the new ones onto the seat so they look like OEM leather.

Either that or get some leather accord seats and put them in your civic. You might find those on ebay or craigslist.

I got a set of GSR leathers for $220...which is kinda cheap, but $300 is pretty safe. You'll need to swap on EK rails so they line up. If you go that route, let me know. I pulled a set of mint rails off my leathers because they were in an EK before I got them.

EK is one of the chassis codes for the 96-00 Civics (6th generation). EG is 92-95 (5th gen), EF is 88-91 (4th gen), etc. It's an easier way to refer to each generation of Civic.
