So after many miles my seat is starting to show signs of aging. Where does one get acura seat leather and how hard is it to replace?

I want it to match as much as possible.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Rob

PS - I have tan interior

Not terribly hard to do. Just make sure you disconnect the battery BEFORE you disconnect the Yellow airbag connector under teh seat.

 

That is pricy, if i'm readying it correctly about $500 in leather. Is there a less expensive option?

 

try to go to a reupholstery shop and c what there price is ... maybe? i dunno im juss throwing it out there

 

your only other options are an upholstery shop or buying a used seat thats in good condition

 

Looking to fix a tear in my seat as well.


Anyone have experience with an upholstery shop? I was curious as to how much those cost on average. Here in Hawaii, I expect it to be higher then else where, but good to have some baseline to compare it with.

 

the leather will cost you less at a shop.. but will equal up to acura price after labor... average price in my area for 4 different shops was 4-500 a seat.

the only benefit is getting to choose your color or getting them dyed.

2 seats = 1k at a shop.. as well as from the dealer. but without labor at the dealer..

 

My seat seam tore at like 100k (after 6 years) it tore right on the seam, but I have a boney A$$. I was gonna ask my moms if she can sue it up 4 ME!

 

like kris said, its not hard to replace the leather. ive take it off before. and u have to work with it to get it on their nice and tight. warm up the leather, easier to work with.
