i would get it done professionally since you obviously have ocd. if u dont, youll only have doubts, which sux, esp if youre neurotic. tell the offender to pay for it - puking does have consequences.

I'd have to slam on the brakes and jump out of the car to prevent puking myself (I'm a sympathy puker).
But I couldn't be mad at a friend for it. I take good care of my cars, and I always have -- and I'd take care of that situation. But, nonetheless, it is just a car and has no value in comparison to a friend (or in this case, girlfriend).
Anyway, I'd just let a professional do it. It shouldn't cost that much. Buying new seats is unnecessary, as is taking the upholstery off the current ones. The perforation does make it more difficult, but a professional should be able to handle it easily.

I yakked in the back seat of my wife's car on my birthday last year (thanks to my wonderful friends 
). Somehow I contained it mostly to my lap, but somehow she got the rest of it up. I'd ask her how, but I prefer not to bring it up

so i cleaned it all out today. i went to pep boys this morning and picked up some carpet shampoo with deoderizer and the scunci steamer.
first, i cleaned the seats with lexol leather cleaner. then, i steamed each and every perforation. the scunci actually works great. it literally evaporated the puke in the perforations. however, i read that after steaming leather, you should condition it shortly after because steaming drys it out. so, i did that.
then, i shampood and steamed the carpets and it looks/smells like new. good thing i have the all season mats. the carpet contact was minimal.
btw, i used the scunci steamer on my rims and the brake dust came off like magic! best $50 i've ever spent.
thanks for all of your help guys! i really appreciate it.

There is a reason that the Odyssey doesn't have perforated leather upholstery and the cloth upholstery is in a camouflage pattern....

the offender was a girl who invited me to HER office party where i knew no one! she left me a message yesterday saying that she had a great time and she's glad she threw up in a bag and not my car. ummm....maybe shes though that my black perforated leather was a bag? that message made me even more mad at her.
