Custom ordering the 40th red seats?

Ricochet48 · 04-12-2010, 01:31 AM

I know this is a stretch and I searched too. However, as the title hints, I'd like to know if anyone attempted to custom order the red 40th anniversary seats. I know they only come on the 40th, and hence create the "limited" edition, but Nissan has to make extras for the 40th owners if they get in an accident, etc. I know for the Mugen Civic Si you had to give them your VIN just to order any replacement parts (as regular Si owners looked to get Mugen parts).

Any news? Otherwise we may just have to wait until 40th owners start getting Brides or other aftermarket seats

I'm a sucker for red. Oh and I'm also curious regarding the matching inserts.

Nobody liked the red interior enough to ask? I'm dying to know. One of the first questions I'm going to bring up at the Nissan dealership when I order mine.

I would go aftermarket, but I wan to still retain the stock airbag system. I'll pay to play, but not to compromise my safety.

Anyways, if you have any info, I would appreciate it (and I'm sure some other members would too!)

Couldn't you check one out in person, and take some pics and get a feel of the fabric, and find a auto upholsterer that customizes interiors that can make these for you?

yeah i highly doubt you can get the OEM material from Nissan. Your best bet is to get custom upholstery which would probably cost less.

The only way you will get the interior is to order the entire interior from a body shop. Plus you will probably have to have a vin# to a 40th to get nissan to fill the order. You should just see a custom fabricator shop and have them do something similar.

Just find a shop that will do custom interior work. I put black leather inserts with red stitching in my base Z
