new 1989 SE- I coupe owner saying my first hellos..

[Ricky116]

Hello everyone Ive been watching for awhile but just recently joined the forum. Thanks for having me ;) I owned a 89 sei coupe in 1992 when it was like new and sold it in approx. 1995 and always missed that car. So a few months ago when I found a one owner blue SE-I coupe exactly like my old one with 62,000 thousand miles on it I couldn't resist! The only major prob. with this car is it sat outside for many years and the leather and paint are in poor cond. so I will be spending some money on this little car to make it as close to like new as pos. I have already done a few things. I installed nos oem carpet the other day that really spruced it up. The seats should be done in a couple weeks. (their being redone in new leather) I know I should be posting pics and I will be as soon. thanks again Ricky

Welcome to the forum! Be sure to post pics of your SE-i when you get a chance, they are great cars!

I'm surprised you were able to find NOS carpet... If you don't mind my asking how much did that cost?

Here's some pics. the one is the new carpet in the coupe the other is an exterior pic and the interior of the four dr. i purchased yesterday

[Hash_man_Se_i]

Very nice!!... Your four door is just like my first se-i. Such great cars!

I am very jealous of the carpet... I think I am going to have to try and hunt down some OE carpet. I bought aftermarket carpet and installed it last year... not very happy with the fit.

^ x2 carpet I got would have fit if there were no ducts running from under the dash to under the seats. But there are, so its all wrinkly and wavy and looks like S*&%.

This carpet looks absolutely perfect. Were all the holes pre cut or did you have to cut them?

[Ricky116]

It was 100% plug and play. every hole was exactly where it should be. No massaging, or stretching. It set right in place.

Where did you get it? Would love to get some carpet that fits right while i have the interior taken out already.

I ordered it thru my local Honda dealership in Vancouver wa. ( Hannah Honda) came in a huge old nos Honda box box!
