Hi guys, my 06 AP2 OEM seat got a teared recently at the area where my butt lands.

I am thinking about to get a 2nd hand seat, driver side or passenger side, to swap out the lower part of the seat.
I am not quite sure if they gonna fit or not? But according to where I have seen some videos on Youtube, the lower part of the seat looks kinda identical to me.

Please let me know if you have any previous experiences with it or a good way to fix it.
Anything would help,
Thank!






Thanks!!

 

Someone correct me if I am wrong, the bottoms are the same. Have seen where people would swap because of bloster wear.

If it was me, I would check locally for a good upholstery shop and get a couple of quotes, have the padding updated if needed and would not pay more than $100.

 

Take it to your local upholstery place and have it fixed this month. Every city has a Honda group on Facebook so I'd just post there to find what's well known or just go based off google reviews.

 

Gotcha, Will check out local upholstery shops and look for another seat for sale as well,
Thanks for the reply!!!

 

Gotcha, Will start to see any facebook pages around in Socal. Thanks

 

That's the typical 2006-07 seat wear. Honda used faulty leather for those years and they just break apart like that. The 2000-05 leather is smooth versus textured in 2006-07 so it won't match if you're thinking about getting one of those. If you get another 2006-07 lower half, then its bound break apart again.

Having an upholstery shop repair it should be the cheapest option but don't be surprised with future tears.

 

Wow I would have never figured a fault in the new seat material of all things. I'm planning an interior rebuild when I find mine so it at least feels new to me on a higher km build, this will serve useful.

Cheers.
