May 29, 201412 yr Has anyone seen any used auto parts/junk yards around the Pattaya area? There must be some place where they take the cars that have been wrecked, and they sell the old parts? I have a 2012 Honda City, and I would like to replace the cloth seats, with used leather seats. If anybody has seen a pick and pull type yard in Thailand I would appreciate your help.
May 29, 201412 yr There's a scrap yard on the beginning of the 36 (if I remember correctly ) motorway. You could also have your seats recovered at the shop on Theprasit road Sent from my V370 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app

May 30, 201412 yr Big yellow building on Sukhumvit ,coming from Pattaya on left hand site ,not far before Banglamung police station.
May 30, 201412 yr I think the seat recovering probably best idea, my vision of the best quality seat from a breakers yard would be "more Duct Tape than vinyl".
June 3, 201412 yr Author Thank you to everyone for your information and suggestions. Much appreciated!
June 3, 201412 yr Heading out of Pattaya on suk road towards the banglamung police station approx 1km before the police station on the left there is a bright yellow building. they have a lot of used car parts there. Edited June 3, 201412 yr by Spoonman
June 3, 201412 yr Have you sat in a car with leather / vinyl seats in Thailand? I find them very uncomfortable in the hot weather. You may be a be able to replace the material with Alcantara which is more like suede and probably more breathable. I would try and keep the original seats and mounting locations. Seats play a vital role in a crash and I would worry about not having the OEM seats and mounting locations.
