Help deciding on seats
Hey everyone, this is my first post...
I have a '92 Integra GS-R, Aztec Green Pearl, and the interior needs a little TLC. There's a small hole worn into the driver's side seat, the cushion is depressed in the front, and well, it's 1992 interior... I stopped by a reupholstery place, and the guy quoted $800 to do both seats.
As much as I like the stock seats, should I replace them, repair them, cover them? I have some $ to spend but that quote was a bit too rich for me.
Also, are newer GS-R, ITR seats able to mount into the car?
Thanks.

Re: Help deciding on seats
Seems a bit pricey to me. Honestly it would be cheaper to find some seats on Craigslist or here on the forums.
There's a seat swap guide somewhere on here that will tell you which seats will work for your vehicle and if any modifications are needed.
Hope that helped.

Re: Help deciding on seats
After stopping by another upholstery shop, the guy said, "It's almost a classic with original interior. You should try and find that seat, or even the passenger seat (same cushions, fabric), and we can recondition your original."
I'll check out Craigslist and the forums. Thanks again.
BTW: for anyone else interested, I stopped by an Acura dealership, and they can no longer get the cushions or fabric.

Hit up the junkyard for some gsr seats. I got some in perfect condition. If not you could always patch your current seats to tide you over.
Type R recaros would fit if you can get someone to weld the da brackets onto it.
