So apparently non lumbar seats have different frames...

So I went to my local junkyard and just pulled a whole power and lumbar seat for $50. Then I just swapped the upper from the lumbar seat on to my current one. And put the new cover on that. The result?

After clear coating my bumper... I let it sit the garage to cure. And about an hour ago, I was doing my seat on the other side of the garage, and the wind gusted out of no where. And blew the bumper off the things it was on :( it made quite a few marks but I guess it's whatever. Still looks better than what it was, and it'll just get rock chips later anyways. I'll have pics of that later tonight when I put it on.

And I now have a good full power seat if anyone just wants it. Whether it works or not... I don't know :lawl: have all the plugs and everything

Edit:


Altogether

More/better pictures soon. Will possibly begin polishing my wheels this coming week and will most likely grab some 20mm spacers if I can't find other wheels I like.

So it looks like the lever for the seats to go forward is a bit higher on the side of the seat for 01-02 Accords than it would be for 98-02 front folding coupe seats. At least judging from your two little holes and where I think my front lever is. :rly:

Looks nice though:beer:

When I restored mine, I wet sanded them using 3000 grit sand paper, then I used 3M cutting compound, then 3M swirl remover, then 3M polishing compound. All with a variable speed buffer. I put a coat of Mothers Cannuba Wax over them to protect them. They look brand new :)
