recaro seats steam clean
 

anyone know where i can get my recaro red seats steam cleaned? or professionally cleaned?

also planning to order some new bolsters, anyone know who does these repair?

also my side air bag light is on for changing the seat

anyone know if without by passing it, would my front air bags still deploy in case of an accident?

dont care about the stupid light

its an 05 rsx s

As far as i know they will. someone can correct me if im mistaken

^

any source?

i read on ton or forums about it when i changed the seats in my si and when my brother did it in his rsx i cant remember where they are now but i found one that the guy had been in an accident and the airbag deployed no problem. the other thing you can do if fool the car by doing something with a resistor or something to make it think its still plugged in. but after i read it deployed i didnt bother.

What's the material those seats are made of? Alcantra?

at first i thought it was suede

after more researching it is alcantra




im planing to order some oem recaro bolster skin and inside foam

but hoping there is a local shop who can do the work, that are familiar with reassembling seats and stuff

there is a DIY thread i saw, seems a lot of work n i rather not try it myself

^ dont wanna steer off topic but in regards to what you asked, I have status seats and the foam cushion pads down the middle of the chair are in 3 separate velcro pieces, I always thought about cutting them open and stuffing them with foam and stitching them back together lol.. never have the balls to do so

^ You could always try a mockup using generic fabric to see if its worth doing. If the foam is that worn in the seat, its worth a try.

would like to know about the cleaning as well. i dont wanna mess it up myself

so far so good

i spent about 2 hrs and half cleaning them, however i was too lazy to take them out

especially the back of my seat are 95% clean, so i just spend most of the time cleaning the front.

suppose to be 1:6 mixing ratio,end up my bottle was too small to add anymore water so it became 1:4 ratio. Therefore it was a bit too foamy but oh well no biggie


using two heater right now to dry it in my car



result looks good so far

post some before after pics?

dont have before , lol too late

i will post the after pic
