The Budget Build Honda Civic is in store for some (not so clean) $30 seats! Let's find out if we can bring these Del Sol buckets back to life with whatever detailing and sewing skills I have...Even if it doesn't look pretty.
Keeping things in the "budget friendly" category for my Civic Project, I stumbled across some Honda Del Sol seats for $30. These had definitely seen better days but I figured I might be able to transform them. I've never patched a hole in a car seat or even sewed for that matter, but I thought these would be pretty good to learn on. I fixed and patched the foam in the seat and gave it a pretty hideous frankenstein sewing job.
Following that mess, I decided to tackle this disaster detail and bring these car seats back to life. I'm sure these seats sat out in the elements for a few years so I needed to sanitize and give them a DEEP clean. I didn't have a carpet & upholstery extractor at that time, so I made due with my detailing steamer and a handful of detailing chemicals, brushes, and microfiber towels. Overall, these dirty seats had a decent detail transformation! Interior detailing is always satisfying, but even easier when you have the seats out of the car.
The future plan is to order some "glove like" leather seat covers to obviously make them look good but also to keep the cost down. Having these seats reupholstered and having the holes patched would have justified just buying new seats. These Del Sol seats are a direct swap into an EJ/EK Honda Civic and feel SO MUCH better than the oem seats. Stay tuned for when we get these bad boys in!
