Hey all, I am in the process of trying to get my civic looking decent. The person i bought it from beat the hell out of it, I only paid $500 for it and believe me it looks as though i paid $400 too much. Anyways i want to kind of replicate the interior of a VW Jetta/Passat, they make a tan and black interior which looks really nice. Now i was looking and i can find plenty of tan but no black parts. So i guess my question is do they make pure black pieces or just gray? also what years can i use for my interior? which seats can i use? and last did they make oem leather seats for a civic my year? i don't like racing seats. Any help is greatly appreciated. also i'm a noob when it comes to honda's, i see alot of abbrevations which abb. is for my car? thanks.

 

learn to reupholster. My 96 civic came with rear leather seats but not front so i dont know what thats about.

 

what the hell, are you serious? i can understand front leather and rear cloth. anyways what about the black pieces?

 

sem color coat laquer spray cans there made for inter. of cars you can use it on anything including the seats just clean everything realy good and put it on in lite coats all pastic parts it's good to clean with a wax and grease remover a couple of times before apply

SEM = company
Color Coat = type
it works nice i did my seats with it they were tan from and integra now there gray the fabric was a little hard at first but if you let it dry for a day or so and take a hair brush to them they soften right back up - and the pastic on the sides of the seat look like the oem plastic it's not to shinny or to flat

 

I dont think civics came with BLACK interior, but "type k" interior is a very dark grey.

as for the car abbreviations, im assuming you mean "eg, ek, ej6" etc.

These are all codes on your vin number, eg and ek are codes on the civics made in europe and japan, eg = 92-95 civics, and ek = 96-00 civics. The codes that are actually found on our vin numbers are the other ones, ej6, etc. Your car is an ek, and I believe it is an ej6, but you can check that on your vin number on your dash.

Only certain JDM/EDM EK4's and EK9's came with black interior for the 6th gen, and some Si's and EX's came with black interior for the USDM 5th Gens.

 

which models and years will fit? like will a 02 civic front seats fit?

Are you looking for a black leather seat? If so, just swap in an Integra GSR seat. You just have to swap the interior (seatbelt buckle side) rail from your stock seats, and they'll bolt right in.

 

ok, so look for gsr seats, so i have to change the seatbelt and buckle how hard is that?

 

also i have a 4dr lx, and thanks for the help on the abbre. so i guess i have a ek? and one more thing i'm not good at painting so i will stay away from that.

 

You don't have to swap out the seatbelt, just the rail on that side. It's two bolts, it's really easy.

And you don't have an EK, you have an EJ6

 

errrrrrr i'm never going to get the abbre. right. so i have a ej6 cool

 

oh, the rear are just like that? just put them in and change the rail?

Not the rear. The fronts. For the rears, you need black leather GSR 4-door rear seats

 

What Eran has said is correct. If anyone would like to have information on a certain VIN (that means Vehicle Identification Number - so you don't have to say number after it) just PM me.

Is your car a coupe or a hatchback or a sedan?

 

sedan

No, those ones won't work. You need sedan rear seats.

 

what integra parts can be used? console armrest? thanks.

 

You can use the shiftknob, the seats, and you can remove the armrest lid to put it on a 96-00 armrest (so it can match your seats).

 

any idea on cost for the console and dash to be painted black?
