Recommend car seat covers brand for

1987 Honda Civic.

Apparently seats are an unusual shape. Regular seat covers don’t work well.

I’ve tried a couple from local car parts store. Lasted about a day before tearing at the top. Maybe due to poor quality… Pricey experiment.

Thanks.

Got a sewing machine? Make some heavy duty one of a kind ones you can be proud of.

Asked the people at the sewing machine store for recommendations, got 3 phone numbers
and went from there. Found out later I should have been asking people at work and
church "Who does sewing?"

car seat covers. They stopped selling them because you can order on Amazon and put them on yourself. Rayco does custom in other mediums. Give them a call.

First rate quality and fit. They can get a little pricy depending, but they are custom fit to your car.

I always get a back seat cover for my dogs.

It isn't that much more than good covers that never fit to just have your seats redone. they can fix the undercushioning too.
