Would you have to take the original seats apart?I'd like to know how this goes too, I want to put them in my wife's Altima
This is what I've been doing lately, and its kinda scary but exciting.It's always nice to be the first person to do something no one else has!![]()
If you take apart your seats and have an airbag issue ever say goodbye to your warranty. Especially the passenger seat. It has an occupancy sensor in it. Its very expensive to replace the sensor. I wouldnt reccomend this at all, and i have the same kit from my last car
This is why I won't be ripping apart the original seats. I don't think it's a good idea. I'll be sitting the heating elements on top of my original seats. The new covers will be super snug and keep them held in securely.for some manufacturers, the seat cover material is glued to the foam underneath. this may be problematic. i assume if the cover is not glued, there will be fewer complications. i don't know if this includes Versa, Sentra or Altima. proceed with cautionkeep us posted!
also, when i go to do mine, there's no point imo to heat the backing, just heat the bottom, cuz my coat is insulating me from the back. thus i don't have to mess with the air bag in the backing either![]()
In my Versa the seat fabric is held in with upholstery rings and velcro. I just cut the rings and slipped it off.for some manufacturers, the seat cover material is glued to the foam underneath. this may be problematic. i assume if the cover is not glued, there will be fewer complications. i don't know if this includes Versa, Sentra or Altima. proceed with cautionkeep us posted!
