Looking to cover the seats of my 2019 Honda Civic Sport Hatchback with Katzkin leather but not sure how long it would last as i plan on keeping my car until Type R prices go down lower then 20k used as that was about how much i paid for my hatchback at the dealer a few months ago
I would like to know as i do not like the color of the seats i have and want a different color for them and also want leather as well

I have them in my 2017 hatch and they seem to be holding up very well. I'm at 53000 miles so far. I will take a few pictures of the driver seat for you and post them up.

Not in a civic, but my friend bought a used 09 Odyssey that the previous owner had Katskin leathers installed in. They're holding up fantastically, especially considering she has 7 kids, all ranging from 1-12 (2 are hers, 5 are her step kids)

Thank you for the replies I got a appointment for the dealer to install them
I hope mine lasts as long as yours has

Used to have them on my old car. They held great until I sold them, no issues and great company.

are you satisfied with your seat heater output through the katzskin leather?
I'm satisfied with mine. I had Katzkin put in towards the end of this past winter and used the seat heater multiple times. It takes just a bit longer to heat up (no surprise) but works just fine. The seats seem to retain their heat a bit longer if the heater is turned off.

Perfect. I’m blown away at how well [fast] the seat heaters in the civic work, if it slows them down a little bit then that’s no big deal
