Hey there,
My 91 integra seats got a little nasty from some moister thanks to worn out window seals and a mouse found its way in over a winter and ate a section of cushion. I cant win. Anyone know of a place that might still produce replacement foam for these seats? Or am I stuck with fabbing my own foam ?-Chip

I would check your local area for a upholstery shop. They
will fix it and have all the tools to do the job right. stop
by and get an estimate.Seat upholstery and the cushioning are not real proprietary, unlike engine or other parts etc.
Maybe go to a place like JoAnn Fabrics.
You probably could find OEM stuff but it will be over priced. Plus, car seats are a pain in the butt to deal with no matter what so even OEM foam isn’t going to just slide right in.Thanks all. Ill check some upholstery shops near me. I was gonna do new seat covers too so i wasn’t concerned about getting old to fit new. All the car interior websites only seem to go back to late 90s for seats then jump straight to the classics. Not too much 80s and 90s stuff
Salvage yards. They sure do have plenty of those, as often as they are raced and crashed.
Btw, why do you think mouse chewed on otherwise not edible upholstery and foam? You want me to safely guess, or you guess yourself?

Also found pass side one. In about 3 minutes of Googling.

Yeah I just saw that ebay listing a few hours ago…might be something ill consider.
The salvage yards in my yard or only good for misc small parts. Everything gets picked and sold off prior to dumping the cars there and even then cars only stay in the lots for a couple weeks before they crush.
I figured it was a mouse because it looked like a mouse chewed into it looking for a place to nest or keep warm. The car sat for a few years before I acquired it.
Car was eaten inside. It’s food leftover that attracts them, they do not give mouse tail for fabric and foam. I had my CR-V plagued by ants in AL once. As in – entire car was covered in them. That’s when I quit carrying any soft drinks or eating inside. Want snack – it’s eaten OUTSIDE.
About the only car parts that do attract rodents are latex containing tires and, for some dumb reason, one of the sensors insulation on Honda Ridgeline.Damn plague on those cars. Along with $350 price tag to fix.
