For those of you wanting to cover your existing RED seats, be aware that the red in the Clazzio seat is not the same and will not match your door card leather. The Clazzios are a lighter and brighter shade of red. This may not bother you but just fyi.
They are more comfortable and "grippier" than the stock leather seats. Kind of a nice feature.
I would think that it would depend on the exact model year, the exact red they used on the interior changed a bit throughout the years

This is the info I have on the different reds. Been down that road and I am guessing that the Clazzios most closely match new pure red. They definitely don't match Vivid red in the 00-03 model years.

Honda actually made three different reds in the 99-07 production run as far as I know.

00-03 R153L Vivid RED
04​​-05 NH167 RED2
06-07 R145L New Pure Red

Still waiting for @Kravon 's photos of the Black with red inserts. But the all-red is growing on me.

Sorry forgot about this. Enjoy the pics. I really like the seat covers. They squeak a little bit but nothing major. I have also added quite a few other minor things such as front and rear camera in the rear view mirror that also has phone mirroring with two separate screens in the mirror, a stitched leather steering wheel cover, leather arm pad rest, leather shift knob, leather stitched shift boot, Kenwood stereo with rear USB ports and modern options, microphone, Lloyd floor mats, and a magnetic phone holder. I may do a post with all the items and links however I am sure people already know about them. I live in Florida and even the OEM Titanium shift knob got too hot so I ordered a red stitched leather one for now and I have a JDM OEM leather one coming in from Japan but that will be five weeks. Surprisingly I got the existing shift knob you see in the pics on sale for $13.00. Only the read leather stitched one was on sale as all the other colors sold for $40.00.

@Kravon Nicely done. Did you wrap that steering wheel yourself? Also the red Honda emblem is a stick on? If so, make sure you attach that thing on firmly (somehow)...You don't want that thing to fly off like a projectile toward you in case the airbag deploys.

Very nice! I'm interested in knowing more about some of your mods; namely the armrest pad (is it padded (I find the oem too thin and hard)? what brand?), more pics of the Lloyd floor mats (are they extended ones), magnetic phone holder (can't really see how it's mounted), and your rearview mirror (how is it mounted?). Thanks!

I have the arm rest cover (black leather with red stitching) but I haven't installed yet. It just a piece of leather...when install you can put your own padding however thick that you like.

Yep I wrapped and stitched the steering wheel myself. Took about 5 hours total. I did it without removing the steering wheel. Was not really hard just time consuming. Yes the emblem is a stick on that fits perfectly over the OEM emblem. It is on there really tight. Here is a link to the leather steering wheel cover:

The armrest is padded. It is a high quality leather. Was kind of a pain to install. Took about 2 hours start to finish as you have to glue it yourself. The magnetic phone holder was only like $15.00 however the double sided tape it came with was garbage so I attached some 50 pound strength 3M double sided tape and it held perfect. The mirror install involved removing the entire OEM mirror. It came with a new metal bracket that mounted to the windshield via some rear view mirror glue I bought at a local auto store. The real hard part was taking off the old metal OEM bracket from the front window. I tried all kinds of tricks even the old cutting through the glue with fishing line but none of that was working. Eventually I grabbed a lighter and held the flame directly to the metal bracket for 15 seconds. After 15 seconds I would try to very slightly and gently wiggle it with a pair of channel locks. If it did not start wiggling then I would hold the flame up for 15 seconds again and then try again with the channel lock pliers. It took about 4 tries but eventually the glue underneath heated up enough that I could wiggle the existing metal bracket off the windshield. To be honest i was scared shitless doing this thinking the heat would break the glass but it did not and was pretty easy.

The floor mats are very high quality and you can customize the logo, stitch color, and even the floor mat cover. The carpet pile is about twice as thick as the OEM ones and they have two hooks. Only downside is they take like 3 weeks because they custom make them to your specifications. I believe I paid like $120.00 with a coupon I found online.

I installed all the items myself so if you need any tips let me know. It took a lot of time but i enjoy stuff like this. My goal was to update the car with new tech and also make it look nicer but nothing over the top. I also wanted it so that if I ever wanted to revert back to the OEM items it would be super easy so none are permanent mods. I have not installed the front camera yet but plan on doing that next weekend. I just got the car back from the body shop as I had the front bumper and hood repainted the stock color due to rock chips and road rash. I will get PPF installed on the front in 30 days after the paint and clear coat fully cure.

I had a hard time finding a radio that had rear and front USB ports with Bluetooth and Alexa with a microphone but I did find one at Best Buy. The goal was to run a rear USB cable to connect the phone as I like to keep the front radio door closed.
