One of my idiot friends burnt a hole in the upper right bolster on the passenger side seat with a cigarette. How much would it cost to get the fabric replaced and where could I get it done?

 

No idea.

This is why no one is allowed to smoke in my car!

 

ur idiot friend is a dead friend.. no smokin in my car either, pointless post but im sure some1 out there cud let u no...

 

i smoke at least 4 cigs in my car a day and im not even really exact about it anymore... yet ive never burnt a hole... dropped 2 ice cream cones and got "nut-like" stains but no cig burns lmao

 

i think its time for some mugen racing seats, a $1200 answer to a cigarette burn

 

ya if i only had the money

 

make your "friend" pay for it. Its 299.99 at hondapartsdeals

 

lol Friend in caps made me giggle... and yea the only downside to getting 1200 racing seats... is what happens when he burns those? we move onto 1500 dolla racing seats? lol

 

Same thing happened to me but its not that big of a hole?

 

Lesson learned??? Don't let your friends or anyone smoke in the car! lol
I learned the hardway in my Lexus...I had to strangle him.

 

Only way to prevent anything like that is never smoke in your car. Unless its some fresh greens

 

did you get the fabric protection from honda? theyll fix any burn as long as its under a certain size, i think its about the size of a playing card and they will fix it, i made it a point to ask them if they warranty cigarette burns too, they told me yeah. ive got 2 burn holes in mine, that are very tiny...luckily they are in spots i dont ever look at. one between the drivers side door/seat and one under the ebrake. i find buying an ashtray(the kind where you can just drop it in) works great when smoking in the car. i make all of my friends use it and put their finished smokes in there to prevent them from flying in.

 

Sweet i think i do have the fabric protection. Ill have to check into that. Thanks.

 

Your other option is to call a vinyl repair service, like the kind that repairs dash and armrest pads. They have some way of repairing seat fabric also. Check with your dealer for a name if you can't find on in a phone book. This usually takes about an hour or so. I have seen the results in a co-workers Hyundai a few years back, and it was very hard to find the burn.

I quit smoking two years ago, but my wife didn't. She smokes in her Element, but I won't let her smoke in my Fit.

 

No way I'd let anyone smoke in car- no way, no how!
Anyway, like others have said, ask the friend to pay for the repair. Best of luck to you.
