Well 90% of the car will be freshly painted so there's that. Plus saves me some of the cost on getting the RC ducts installed. Silver lining I guess.

im selling my clazzio seat covers. i figured i would let you guys know first and see if anyone wants them before i make a for sale thread.. they are all black with red stitching.. ill post some pics when i stop feeling lazy.. they are only 2 weeks old.. the passanger side one got sent to me with a small tear in the stitching about 1 inch long.. i fixed it and again ill post pics later. let me know if anyone is interested.. if not ill just make a for sale thread.. price ill do $270. they costed me $370 i figured because the small tear in the passanger stitching ill take a loss on them..

Only if they are made of Corinthian leather...

dmhenderson · 04-29-2013, 06:00 PM

Out of curiosity (other than the tear), what made you decide to sell?

i want to buy touring seats, also i wasnt thrilled with the fitment. dont get me wrong they are by far the best seat covers out there. but i think the ones from katskin that actualy replace the fabric instead of just covering it look a lot more like factory. but the katskin ones are about $1000. so for the price they are worth it.. im just a little to picky on how i like things to fit..

dmhenderson · 04-29-2013, 06:09 PM

Anyone know how I can check the nissan parts catalog for 2014? Couple things I want but I dunno how to check it.

I know my body shop can somehow.

I found this:
http://parts.nissanusa.com/nissanpar...intvehid=17615

but not sure if that's up to date.

here are some pics.. i took a close up of the seam that i fixed. also there is a small tear where it goes over the head rest nubs. this happened when i was taking them off the seat.. the tear is also on the passanger side one. so to recap small tear in the side bolster stitching that is fixed.. and another small tear in the fabric that goes over the nub for the headrest. both are on the passanger side seat cover.. the tear that goes over the nub cannot bee seen when its fitted to the seat. the nub hides the tear because it tucks under it..

I like the seat covers but im just like you, I want the genuine setup.. hell if I could get my hands on the leather, i'd do the swap myself, it'll be my 3rd doing an upholstery job.. even though redoing seats sucks azz.

it needs to fit like factory for me to be happy with it.. iv done a ton of the katskin leather seats and their fitment is awesome. nice and tight fitment.. im gonna try to buy some touring seats and if i cant find some at a good price ill just buy the katskin ones and do it..

Yeah I hear you. I don't care for that "puffy" look you get with aftermarket seats sometimes.

I hear ya. I wasn't a huge fan of how the touring interior wore on my 09, so that was one of the contributing reasons why I decided to stick to cloth this time around.
