    Oh yeah Things are looking up!

    Great news just took a 360 mile trip and averaged 41 MPG..Very pleased with the Fuel Mule...I was wondering if the seats on my 85 Hatch were the same up to a later year maybe not the mounts but the shape and size I would like to get seat covers but of course the second gens are not listed "like they never were even there"

    I have some generic seat covers on my 2gen, but they are pretty bad. Apparently newer Prelude and Civic seats "may" swap in, but I'm really not sure of specifics.

    yeah aftermarket custom covers start at 150 bucks then what do I do for the back....Just would like to start with some covers maybe later get some new seats and forget all about the stock seats the more I get in and out the more foam I lose

    I also had my windshield replaced to day good thing I live in Florida didn't have to pay a dime....Kind of tough to get someone else to pay for there negligence.

    I was able to get a set of front and rear covers for my '82, when I had it. I think they came from Kragen. I bought two bucket covers and a bench cover. I pulled out the back seat and tucked the bench cover in all nice and pretty like.

    It worked great and only cost about $100 if memory serves.
