Joe and Wag do you guys have pics of your seats I could see. Gotta convince the boss

 

I took a few pics that might help. As I look at them I'm seeing more wrinkles but I think it might be due to heat/humidity. I looked at leather seats in the Honda showroom last weekend and they seem to have as many if not more!

If you look close up you can see the blue stitching, but from casual view it's hardly noticeable. Hope these help your decision!

 

looking good, are they worth the price though?

 

I got mine from the first group buy before Bean Garage joined this forum, and I got the one's with the leather centers. They cost a little more than the all PVC ones, but worth every penny. Still one of my favorite mods, and they still look immaculate after 3 yrs!!!

I had no issues with them not fitting right or being too big as some have posted, I think it might have something to do with the all-PVC ones (not sure, though). After about a week in the sun/heat my leather insert Clazzio's tightened up like a glove and still look that way.

One thing that's been itching me is to cut out the access for the strap-downs behind the rear passenger seats, but I'm going to have to cut the Clazzio's & the JDM Honda mats (there's 3 pieces 2 of which cover the back of the rear seats & one for the trunk floor, not to be confused with the cargo tray available here in the states from Honda)

 

Well I've decided to go black/black. Now the decision is to go with orange stitching or black. The black I can get now but the orange will cause me to wait 8+ weeks. Not sure if my patience can hold out that long.

 

Ill upload some pics in the morning

 

Just got my Clazzio seat covers installed. I got light gray with dark gray stitching, all PVC. They are pretty subtle. They took about 4 hours to install, and I'm still fiddling with them here and there to fine tune the install. The worst part was getting the front seat bottoms in. The strings don't like to snug down too much. If anybody has any tricks for getting them tighter (without removing the seats) I'd love to hear them. I did pop a piece of the plastic strap holder when I pulled it too hard. Luckily the straps snug down really easily with a hitch knot. The headrests and seatbacks went on easily--just take your time and turn them inside out first. I also let all the parts air out on a clothesline for a week before the install--that really minimized the new PVC stink in the car. The seats are now way more comfy and they don't pick up any of the hair/lint/crap that the old seats seemed to be magnets for.

The color in the closeup of the stitching is the one the seats are closest to.

 

Looks great ^^

First time we've seen that color combo.

 

How is the comfort during the summer heat since everybody complains about their A/C?

 

Mine aren't any different than the stock seats. If anything, they seem a bit squishier, in a good way. It may just be the seats getting broken in though.

 

I thought they would heat up pretty good, but I was surprised to fine they don't get as hot. That's sitting in direct sunlight. Once you open the doors and allow the car to air out for a minute, it's not an issue.

 

Thanks, I have had leather seats in the past quite a long time ago and vinyl seats when that was the standard rather then cloth. In those days the vinyl was cheap and you would stick or have a puddle of sweat. These seat covers look like a higher quality then even the leather seats in the 90's Lexus cars.

I definitely have to get a set just trying to decide on the colors for my Red 2012 Sport. Some combination of gray to match most of the interior.

Thanks again for your responses.

 

Got in the car the other day after it had been parked in full sun for a while. I was wearing shorts at the time and the clazzio seat covers were somewhat hot (certainly warmer feeling than stock velour), and I felt like I was sticking to the seat slightly as well. I don't know if this was because the clazzio's have only been installed for a week or so. On the plus side, they really do look/feel like leather. They are every bit as comfortable and supple as my buddy's older acura mdx leather interior.

 

Maybe a light color would be in order. Another question how is the seat covers with the rear seats down and carrying cargo? Or how is everyone adjusting to carrying cargo?

 

im ordering the all PVC black/black/orange stitch to match the car. I saw the fin, how well does it work?

 

It functions as good as the OEM antenna and looks real good.

Here's the thread I posted with pics: https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/2nd-...installed.html

 

I have a 2012 Orange Fit Sport, but the website only goes up to 2009 on the selection. Which one did you get?

 

When he added 2012, he never added the year on the drop down. He added the 2012 paint code under 2009. Under 2009 select Paint Code: YR592M > Orangeburst Metallic

If you have any questions, e-mail sales@visualgarage.com. Be prepared to wait at least 3-4 weeks. It's worth it.

 

Thanks. I figured it out in the meantime. Opened the drivers door and looked at the paint code and saw that the 2009 code matched. That's what I ordered. Now if only there was a neat way to get my XM antenna under there without cutting it and without having the wire exposed. Oh well. I'll live. Can I just say I'm in love with the orange fit. I got the fin coming, the car seat covers coming from bean garage, also the cargo liner and cover as well as the door sill trims and bumper appliqué coming from Bernardo parts and the led interior lights from college hills. Think I went a little crazy. Now to find a place local to tint the windows for a rein able price. Problem is there are not many places local so they tend to charge more than usual because they can. Oh and I ordered the BT35HON to add Bluetooth to the stock stereo

 

Very nice! You'll need to post pics. You'll love the seat covers and Spencer, from Bean, is awesome!
