Tuxmats are installed! Happy with the fitment. Went all out from front to trunk + back seat protector. Definitely a good addition to the interior! ??

I actually don’t mind the type r cargo mat, it’s pretty nice. But I do have tuxmat all inside

Thanks! Can’t go wrong with it. ??

As @katch922 said, I prefer the more simple and tamed interior. Imho, the 2 Type R logos in front and back + red seats + badge plate is enough. But it’s just me. Haha

This is awesome man a dedicated cdn page, I believe tuxmat is also a cdn company.
Maybe we can highlight some of these if they're from the great white north.
I'm gonna be ordering these soon and I think they're from Quebec.

Having said that, I got the high carpet type R mats, oem window visors, the type R trunk mat and the seat back protectors for like 600 cdn from Ike Honda in Il, then got one of my trucker buddies to bring it with him(no duty).

Love this youve toned down the red and made the seats ”pop” even more. It looks like a quality product

Loving those seat covers, where do we order those?

Thanks alot! Appreciate it! ??
Yeah I believe they are from ?? too and heard good reviews with their products. So you’ll be good!

That’s cool! OEM for sure can’t go wrong!

Yeah that’s what I love with the Tuxmats! ??

additional comment for the tuxmat: The quality Is superb! And the material is easy to clean. Only concern with the tuxmat is for the trunk area, makes your item in the back slide easily if it is not full lol

Loving those seat covers, where do we order those?

LOL, factory OEM!
Speaking of seat covers, still undecided whether to put one or not. Hypersuede cover is what I’m interested with but apparently can hinder the airbag deployment because of its thick covering + microsuede is not good for a seat cover. Other brands for me tho just don’t look good. This looks better ?. Thoughts?

 

[katch922]

I don’t plan on covering seats, they look so nice will defeat the purpose. Just keep it clean, and don’t eat and drive

I get the car detailed once a year at least, so hopefully whatever I can’t get off, they can.

If you do know the OEM seat material, please do share!

I might be heading that way too, just can’t right now! Raincouver weather makes me worry. ?

I guess that’s a good plan! Will let you know if I find something better than the hypersuede, but might be impossible as sweidit already said its a liability issue.

 

[katch922]

Usually alcantara is a good option for longevity and ease of cleaning, if that’s what our seats are, I wouldn’t even worry, but again I am not sure what the OEM seat material is…

Had this since 2 weeks ago from amazon for the center console but don’t have time to install yet.
Installing one in phone already gave me a hard time before, I’m assuming this will be more difficult lol!

I got the same one, easy install but I left my fingerprint underneath it in the corner oh well.

Btw, how do you guys wash the car in the winter. Stick to warmer days and just wash it in the driveway? I don’t really want to use a car wash, probably not great for the car.

Yeah, I’m gonna wait for my brother to do this. I’m not good at it lol. ?

Weather here in LM, BC has been tricky. We’re at 14C High and it is Winter still, so I can’t share much unfortunately. But since I have PPF and ceramicoat, whichever suits my time. Lol
