Ok I am seriously thinking of selling my 2 front Tan leather seats (2001 integra GS) and getting a pair of lighter aftermarket seats. How much do you think I can sell them for?? I am hoping I can cover the cost of the new seats... (or if anyone wants to trade? hehehehhehhe)

Are they power or manual? What are you going to do about the back seats?

Manual seats, I think I am going to keep the back, 'cause I drive my brother and sister every now and then. (just looking out for my little sibilings hehe)

I am ruling out selling the back too though.. 'cause my car is so damn heavy...


like they say.. if you can't get bolt on, bolt off... hahah

Seeing as how your seats are still in very good condition, I'd say around $650.

Acura charges close to $5000 per seat.:eek: My friend had his seats stolen and the insurance company was seriously considering writing off his car because the seats were so expensive, but they managed to find a set of used ones and replaced it.

On the market, you wouldn't be able to get close to that amount...

Try suckering an insurance company into buying them.. :D

I heard that people are also stealing the HIDs off the TLs and CLs too because they can easily be removed.

I guess it depends what model of Acura you have. When I had my EL, it was the sport model (everything but leather). I decided a few months later that I wanted leather. I ordered the 2 buckets and back bench from Acura and it came to $2700 installed. Again, those are the manually adjustable seats.

I think you should keep your stock tan leather seats. I think they look so nice!

I doubt the price you get for it will cover the costs of two new seats

It is something that you should keep instead of sell, just my two cents

Cmon man, the leather looks pimp, its a wicked combination. Unless you are getting some Sparco Milanos or something, I say keep the leather.

WEight is no issue, you need madd skillzz and get yourself a turbo. You can be pimping/fast

If you ever do sell your car, you can go back to stock. You might not think of it now but maybe one day you might just decide to try a new car!

This subject appealed to me for some reason. Anyways, when my insurance company bought the used ones...I think they still paid at least a 1500 for the two front ones...and 400 for the back bench(just the bench, not the backings).

If I were you, I'd keep your seats...or if you take 'em out..don't sell 'em 'cause you might want to sell the car at some point.

I don't know if it would be worth swapping out if it was only worth $600.
I think the going rate for Prelude leather is $1000 + trade for cloth. But you should ask around on Integra forums.

Yea, if its 600 bucks I probably won't .. oh well, more money for the turbo (or jdm front end heheheh)

Or find some stupid ass person that would get ride of there site for yours? holy crap this thread is like a year old. But good luck getting that much for them. I got $950 for my Prelude leathers, and Prelude leather seats are a hot item in the states (no such thing as OEM leather in the states)

holy damn! Archaic

I found that those leathers were commonly going for about a grand CAD. My buddy was looking for some and that was the average.
