Just curious to see if people like the black Vinyl (pleather) interior. I've been kicking around this site for a couple years now and I have rarely seen anyone rocking the black Vinyl. Seems everyone has cloth, 'Teg leather, aftermarket, etc etc.

Love it? Hate it? Please vote and leave a comment.

I think it looks great. Wish I had black instead of dark grey.

Not many people have it because it was only available on '92 CX hatchbacks (possibly VXs as well) it wasn't available for any other year or trim level. Vinyl sucks, especially black vinyl, its hot enough to burn you in the summer, and cold as ice in the winter. That said, the door panels are way nicer than the cloth ones, the seats, not so much.

Thanks for posting, I hoped you would show up.

But is it any worse than black leather? Possilbly more durable. Easier to maintain than cloth.

Thoughts?

I must confess that I am awestruck your vinyl seats are still in one piece. All the ones I have ever seen have been ripped to near unrecognizable, generally along the stitching where they are weakest. The disdain with which I hold vinyl holds nearly no bounds. Vinyl durability > Leather? I think not. Sure, easier to clean than cloth, but this only applies if you are a particularly spilly driver, in which case perhaps a bib is more in order than hideous and uncomfortably hot and sticky (summer) / freezing cold (winter) seats. There's a reason they only came on the base model CX - they are the lowest of the lowest bottom feeders of fabrics.

OK, rant over. Just having a bit of fun. Your seats are remarkably nice. Question: Driver's side seat bolster: Not ripped?

Hahaha!

Sticky in the summer and icy in the winter. Honestly it's not really too bad IMO.

I've had this interior for almost ten years now and it has held up very well! I guess I just assumed it was at least somewhat durable. Nothing but vacuuming and vinyl protectant.

Looks good!
Is it just me or are you missing a shifter? lol

Yes, this is my current poject. Shifter, engine, and exhaust are not installed.

I am not a fan of vinyl or leather for this same reason. Way too hot in the summer, and way too cold in the winter.

I sort of like it, but I've always preferred cloth over leather or vinyl.

Plus I hate how perforated leather or vinyl can get so dirty. I'd drive myself crazy with that.

looks great! I honestly cant tell the difference between that and "Teg leather" so looks good to me lol

I can't say I love the Vinyl seats, I've just had them forever and I think they look cool.

I really HATED the grey interior this car had so it was a no-brainer.

Thanks for the comments everyone.

I think it looks pretty good, better than cloth.

I like the look. As far as comfort, I would always choose cloth above vinyl or leather in a car just because of the hot and stick/cold thing. My sister's boyfriend has a VW with the "leatherette" interior and the seats are actually very comfy, but I tend to doubt the base Honda ones were as nice.

Your vinyl protectant must be nice, those things are in great condition!

I agree better than the cloth looks good.

I wouldnt mind having the black vinyl. BTW, are the rear seats stock on a 92-95 civic hatch?? Cuz I also got those and the fronts too.. Ive only seen them once on another eg...

boxeocampeon

i like it think it looks clean

diearzte2

I think it looks good, but only because it has held up so well. Not many make it through 10 years in that condition.

andyisftw

i think that looks hot dude!

civics4lyfe

do what you like, personally its not my cup of tea. but anyone who does that style interior, and they like it themselves, props to them.
