How to choose the right car seat cover


Western car manufacturers pay a huge amount of attention to developing comfortable seats. Essentially, high-quality seats are the key to comfort for both driver and passengers. Therefore, today in most foreign cars you can often find anatomical designs that are equipped with lumbar support, and there is also lateral support.

Recently, the domestic auto industry has begun to improve car seats for the benefit of comfort. But what about the owners of those generations where such options were not provided? In this case, the solution to the problem comes down to tuning the existing seats, or completely replacing the seats. This article will tell you how to modify the interior of a VAZ 2114, as well as which seats will fit in the car without complex modifications.

Selection and installation of seats on the VAZ 2114

World leaders in car production have long understood how important it is to equip their cars with high-quality and most comfortable seats. The buyer's opinion regarding the chosen car largely depends on them, since first a person gets behind the wheel, checks his sensations from the landing, and tries on how comfortable it is for him to sit there. Plus, modern chairs are equipped with a huge list of functions.


Simple and tasteful

What do we have in the case of the VAZ 2114? Objectively nothing good. No, these seats cannot be called terrible, but they are very far from modern cars.

What to do in such a situation? There are two options.

  1. Leave everything as it is and continue to feel discomfort on long trips.
  2. Install new chairs in which you will feel simply great.

It is the second option that we will dwell on in more detail today.

Covers or seats?

For many, buying new car seats is associated with the desire to transform the appearance of the interior of their car. That is, they care little about the issue of comfort or they have only recently started driving. That’s why they don’t think about the issue of convenience.

If you have ever driven modern cars from top manufacturers, you have probably felt the difference between the seats. But you can’t buy such a car for yourself yet. So why not bring your fourteenth to this level of comfort by purchasing new seats? Good idea.

The covers only create the appearance of a beautiful, cozy interior. The landing was uncomfortable and will remain so.

Set your priorities and think about what is more important to you - a healthy back or a beautiful picture. In addition, by replacing the seats, you can put very beautiful covers on them.

First, let's look at the types of seats that you can purchase for your VAZ 2114. There are three categories in total, the advantages and disadvantages of which are described in more detail in our table.

Seat type

pros

Minuses

Ideal for professional sports, designed for very high loads, made of high quality materials

The design is uniform and is not divided into a backrest and a chair. Very expensive, cause discomfort when boarding and disembarking, and quite hard. They are not intended for driving on regular roads or for long voyages.

The backrest is adjustable, they look great on the fourteenth, well-thought-out safety, clear fixation of the driver, they have excellent support for the hips and shoulders, long trips do not cause discomfort

Not suitable for cars with soft suspension, there are problems with the landing, which is quite uncomfortable, especially for large drivers and passengers

Luxury chairs that are ideal in terms of comfort and ergonomics. Externally attractive, perfectly secures the driver, withstands heavy loads, allows you to easily sit down and stand up, can have many built-in functions, ideal for professional drivers, wide range of position adjustments

They have practically no downsides. But the more features, the higher the cost

Don't chase fashion when purchasing sports or racing seats for regular city roads. But if you are adapting your VAZ for competitions, then it is categorically not recommended to go on the tracks on ordinary seats.


High comfort chairs

What to choose

We have decided on the types of seats, but there are a great variety of them depending on the manufacturer, size, functions, etc.

Since the VAZ 2114 is a car more likely for city roads, we will focus on the choice of anatomical seats.

Let's discuss several points for choosing them.

  1. Origin. Here the choice is between used and new seats. The new ones are more expensive, but they certainly have more advantages. A good place to look for used seat sets is car dismantling yards, where you can touch and inspect the product with your own hands. The choice depends on you and your financial capabilities.
  2. Equipment. The presence of armrests and headrests is strongly encouraged. Make sure that the chairs come with all the necessary components and fasteners. They are not always provided by the seller, so ask in advance about the installation details.
  3. Fastenings. Some seats from foreign cars fit perfectly under the standard VAZ holes for installation. For others, you have to do a little modification in the form of using adapters or creating additional holes. And there are also those, for the installation of which you will have to almost completely redo the seat on the body. This is far from the best option, since you will have to spend a lot of time and money.
  4. Manufacturer. A lot depends on who exactly made the seats you choose. If you are interested in kits from foreign cars, then seats from Ford have proven themselves to be quite good. But keep in mind that some may be too wide, which will complicate access to the handbrake and will not allow you to move the seat back and forth. Take measurements in advance. There is also a company called UNP. It specializes in the manufacture of both anatomical and sports seats for cars of the domestic manufacturer - AvtoVAZ. They have a higher quality finish and are offered with all the necessary accessories and fasteners. Working with them is more convenient and easier.

Sports and anatomical seats


Tuning car seats does not end with covers. The modified upholstery of the VAZ seats cannot affect the design of the standard seat itself, which is no different in terms of comfort. In this case, the only option is a complete replacement. Depending on your income, used seats from foreign cars, new anatomical or expensive sports options can replace stock seats.

Anatomical seats have pronounced lateral support, which prevents the driver from flying out of the seat during sharp turns. They help maintain the correct position of the back, while significantly reducing the risk of musculoskeletal diseases, especially for drivers who spend a lot of time behind the wheel. Standardly equipped with headrests and armrests.

Sports chairs have a single “bucket” shape without division into the back, seat and headrest; their frame is made of more durable material. They are designed for heavy loads and are not suitable for every driver. Installation of anatomical chairs begins with dismantling the factory ones. To do this you will need a set of tools:

  • flat screwdriver;
  • set of heads;
  • ratchet;
  • collar

First, the seat is pulled forward all the way and the metal cables are removed, which serve to make the movement of the seats back and forth smoother. Then the seat is retracted back to its maximum and the four nuts holding it to the bracket are removed. Raising the seat, unscrew the two rear bolts securing it to the slide. After this, the seat can be carefully pulled out of the car, being careful not to scratch the inner trim with metal parts.

To install anatomical seats, you must first determine whether they will fit on the original mounts or whether they will have to be cut off and new ones welded. Some used seats from foreign cars “sit” on factory fastenings without any problems or require minimal modifications (using special adapters, drilling additional holes for fastening).

In particular, the seats from Ford have proven themselves well. In any case, when installing anatomical seats taken from the interior of a foreign car, you need to keep in mind that their design was not calculated for the VAZ 2114, and, therefore, some problems may arise. For example, if the seat is too wide, it may prevent you from engaging reverse gear.

At larger sizes it will not move forward or backward. In this case, passing the technical inspection will be problematic. Such tuning will not bring the desired comfort. In addition, the interior of a foreign car is not cheap, which, if there are possible problems with its installation on a VAZ 2114, may turn out to be a waste of time and money.

A more acceptable option for anatomical seats is the products of the UNP company, which specializes in the production of anatomical and sports seats for domestic cars. The finishing materials offered are of a higher quality than standard VAZ seat upholstery. It is easy to select the necessary accessories for elements from UNP: adapters, brackets, slides.

Dismantling

Before installing new chairs, you will have to get rid of the old ones. Accordingly, dismantling work cannot be avoided.

To work you will need:

  • Flat-head, durable screwdriver;
  • Set of heads;
  • Collar;
  • Ratchet.

The procedure itself looks like this:

  1. Pull the seat forward all the way.
  2. Remove the metal cables that allow the seats to move forward and backward more smoothly.
  3. Now move the seat as far back as possible.
  4. You will have access to the four nuts that hold the chair to the bracket. They need to be unscrewed.
  5. Raise the seat slightly to remove the two rear mountings to the skid. There are regular bolts there.
  6. Now carefully remove the seat from the car.
  7. Do a similar procedure with the second chair.

The installation of new seats depends entirely on the features of their design. There are no universal instructions for installation.


Remove and remove

Next comes the process of installing new chairs. Before doing this, be sure to clean the mounting points, the bottom of the cabin, and get rid of all existing traces of rust.

Do a fitting and determine whether the new seats require additional mounting holes. Try to choose kits that do not require complex installation work. Otherwise, you will create a bunch of unnecessary problems for yourself.

Today there are a lot of seat options on the market that are significantly superior in functionality and ergonomics to the standard seats from the VAZ 2114, but at the same time almost perfectly fit the existing mounting features.

Types of seats

There are three types of seats:

  • racing;
  • sports;
  • seats of increased comfort (anatomical).

Racing seats are designed to withstand high loads. The single frame is made of high quality materials. Typically, such models are much more expensive than sports and anatomical options.

The sports seats consist of a single rigid frame. They are adjustable, provide hip and shoulder support, and are comfortable for long rides. But due to their rigidity, such seats are not suitable for every driver.

General selection conditions

  1. Condition: new or used. New seats are more expensive, but they will last longer. Every year, thanks to modern technology, seats become more comfortable and have new functions. Used seats can be purchased at car dismantling yards.
  2. Manufacturing company. The 2114 fits both seats from other VAZ models and domestic brands, as well as seats from foreign cars.
  3. Additional options. Headrests, armrests, and lift make the seat more comfortable and safer.
  4. Completeness. Basically, the availability of fasteners and accessories needs to be clarified if used seats are purchased.

What seats fit on the VAZ 2114 without modifications?

The most budget option for replacing seats is to choose VAZ models. On 2114 they install seats from nine, ten and other models.

The UNP company produces anatomical and sports seats for VAZ models. The seats are made of quality materials and are sold complete with mountings and accessories.

If you install a UNP seat for the driver, there will be no legroom for the rear passenger.

The Viller company offers sports and anatomical seats for all VAZ models, including 2114. The seats are certified according to GOST. They relieve stress from the spine and have enhanced lateral support. There are heated seat options.

Comfortable and high-quality seats from foreign cars for the VAZ 2114 can be supplied from Audi A4, Hyundai Lantra, Opel Vectra, Opel Astra and Ford. If you are going to disassemble, you need to measure the dimensions of the seats and photograph the mounting points so that you can compare and make the right choice. It is better to select seats from a donor car with the same external dimensions as 2114.

Ford seats are sometimes too wide. If you install such seats on a car, it may be difficult to pass inspection.

If the seats are adjustable, you need to check their condition at the place of purchase.

When considering the options for which foreign car the seats for the VAZ 2114 are suitable for, keep in mind that for a comfortable fit it is better for a fist to fit between your head and the ceiling of the cabin.

Before making the final choice of a seat, you can try it out and check for ergonomics by sitting in the cabin of the same car as the donor car.

Heated seats

Heated seats are relevant for most Russian regions. Sitting on a frozen seat in winter is not always comfortable and safe for health. Many people neglect this option, believing that heating consumes a lot of energy.

In fact, the heating option uses the same amount of energy as the parking lights. The seat warms up quickly and then remains comfortable down to -30 °C outside the car. If you have a choice of options and you have not yet decided which seats can be installed on the VAZ 2114, it is better to install heated seats.

In the 2114 model, the heating option is controlled by the on-board computer. If you independently connect the heating to the network, a short circuit may occur.

What seats are suitable for a VAZ 2114

Which seats are suitable for the VAZ 2114 without modifications: we are looking for the best option

There is a saying: “When there are many diseases, there is only one problem – the spine.” Permanent curvature of the spine and pinched nerves lead to many chronic diseases. It is better to spend many hours driving in a comfortable seat. Unfortunately, the standard VAZ seats are designed for the average driver and cannot suit everyone. If you are planning to change the seats, which seats are suitable for the VAZ 2114?

  1. racing;

The sports seats consist of a single rigid frame. They are adjustable, provide hip and shoulder support, and are comfortable for long rides. But due to their rigidity, such seats are not suitable for every driver.

Anatomical seats provide lateral support when turning, correct back position and reduce the risk of musculoskeletal diseases.

In most cases, there is no need to install racing seats on your car. And seats with increased comfort and sports options can be selected quite inexpensively if you know exactly which model you need.

General selection conditions

Seat covers

The upholstery of standard VAZ seats, as a rule, is not reliable and durable. Covers will help preserve it. You can choose covers from any material, from genuine leather to micro-suede, and in a color scheme that suits the interior and the car as a whole. When choosing covers, it is better to pay attention to options with padding polyester inserts for back support.

In general, my brother and I installed them back in March, for which a special thank you to him, but we didn’t have time to write about it.

Why did you decide to change your seats and why did you choose these seats? In the original driver's seat, the backrest (foam rubber) was squashed and the dick…from@, which regulates the seat tilt, fell off. Of course, I first attached this thing properly, but it was not for long, as it turned out later. As a result, I adjusted the seat tilt with pliers before starting each long trip. When you start driving, the metal backrest presses, sYk@, right into the lower back. While you drive 50-70 km, your back no longer rests on the back of the seat, but you sit stupidly, like on a stool. I started thinking about which seats to change to, and if I did change it, it wouldn’t be a waste of time, but a more worthy option. Or rather, these seats should have a lift, heating, and better lateral support. Of course, our auto industry can’t offer much of this, sports seats are immediately a “no” option (everyone has their own opinion on this matter, of course), so I started looking at what foreign cars could fit into our VAZ 2114 without any special modifications, but while maintaining the functionality of the seats. Miraculously, I don’t remember from whom, I saw in the BZ just an option post about how he installed the front seats from a Lancer 9 in a VAZ 2114. It was already the month of March and I was about to move far from cold Ufa to hot Krasnodar for permanent residence just on my car, so with original seats 2200 km. going was, well, not an option. I found the front seats to be quite bouncy. As the hucksters said, the grandfather-owner destroyed the entire backside of his Lancer, which he almost never drove. I bought them without hesitation, since they were in excellent condition, everything worked, there were no more options for sale, and the travel time was running out. I looked in this man’s bulletin board to see what needs to be removed and what to put on, showed it to my brother and came to him, fortunately he has his own large “factory”))))) for the production of various excellent high-quality horizontal bars (not an advertisement, but you can Anyone can contact him, and there are ready-made ones available). Accordingly, welding grinders, all kinds of pipes and pipe benders are available (the latter was not needed). In general, closer to the point. He took off his chairs and didn’t cut anything off of them. Paul turned out to be quite alive, in principle. There are no photos of the new seats and fastenings on them before modifications, they still need to be sawed off and everything needs to be modified. Main difficulties

— trying on the exact angle of the seats, adjusting the new fasteners to the studs located on the floor, and the position of the seat relative to the door and tunnel. The thing is, surprisingly, these seats are a little narrower than the original ones, so they can be placed closer to the door or to the tunnel in the middle. The driver's seat was moved closer to the tunnel, since otherwise the steering wheel would be a little to the right and you drive, as if not doing business, but only helping the driver control the steering wheel (I drove for a day with this seat position). The passenger seat was placed closer to the door. A pipe was welded onto the front of the seats. Certain sections of profile pipe were welded onto the back of the chairs, resting on the floor and along the chair. We decided that this option would hold the chair better and rest against the floor. In general, everything was welded securely, painted over with black paint and secured to the original studs in the floor. In my opinion, it turned out very well. Now I’m thinking of making some kind of functional tunnel between the seats with my own hands, since after this there is more space there than before. Oh yes, the most “surprising”-unpleasant-hemorrhoids came out later. TADAAAAAMMM-latches from the original chairs cannot be installed on the new chairs, since ours are long and bend, but on the new chairs they are straight and 2 times shorter. You immediately have an idea: Lancer seats have their own latches, so why change them? Yes, they exist, BUT our counterpart, which hangs on the belt, does not snap into place with the new lock. PZDTS, we've arrived. In a couple of days we have to hit the road, there are still a lot of things to do, but here the seat belts won’t be fastened. Of course, such a trip without functioning belts and a latch is generally unacceptable for me, so I decided to buy straight and short ones for our belts. Yeah, “go and buy”, I fell into a fairy tale, but that’s not the case. These are not for sale, I visited all the car markets in the city. What the hucksters and bitches didn’t offer, just to sell it - and latches on a too thick KG wire, one end of which is stupidly sleeved into a TML tip (they beat themselves in the chest, they say the factory ones))))) or drill the latch. In short, I freaked out, bought 2 new lock latches for 2114 and with a hammer))))) straightened this piece of hardware, although it was longer, it was original, reliable and there was no time to look for it. In general, after a couple of days, the chairs passed the highest quality and longest testing for 26 hours of continuous sitting on them. To say that you liked it is to say nothing. The side slope holds the body perfectly when turning, the headrests really hold the head correctly and comfortably, the elevator allows you to adjust the lift height, so you can see the track perfectly. The chair itself seems to be slightly anatomical, and therefore both the back and the ass do not become numb during a very long trip without getting up. The guy and I took turns at the wheel almost without stopping to rest, each drove for 4-6 hours and our bodies didn’t get tired at all. The only thing is that by the end of the trip, the buns were numb and we recovered from this effect on day 2. But excuse me, we had to travel for 26 hours without a break, I think in our seats the effect would have been much worse. My uncle also liked the chairs, since he is shorter than me and very quickly made a chair for himself the way he needed it. Well, photos of the manufacturing process and the final version.

Review from a car owner: Interior, comfort, trunk. Normal ground clearance, 100 t km warranty, relatively cheap maintenance. The Japanese variator is super, the engine is Japanese, the suspension resembles a Logan, just as rugged and impenetrable. Lots of cars and options for less money than its peers. Just a beautiful car. Fuel consumption at a relaxed pace is 8.8 l/100 km in the combined cycle.

What the hucksters and bitches didn’t offer, just to sell it - and latches on a too thick KG wire, one end of which is stupidly sleeved into a TML tip (they beat themselves in the chest, they say the factory ones))))) or drill the latch. In short, I freaked out, bought 2 new lock latches for 2114 and with a hammer))))) straightened this piece of hardware, although it was longer, it was original, reliable and there was no time to look for it. In general, after a couple of days, the chairs passed the highest quality and longest testing for 26 hours of continuous sitting on them. To say that you liked it is to say nothing. The side slope holds the body perfectly when turning, the headrests really hold the head correctly and comfortably, the elevator allows you to adjust the lift height, so you can see the track perfectly. The chair itself seems to be slightly anatomical, and therefore both the back and the ass do not become numb during a very long trip without getting up. The guy and I took turns at the wheel almost without stopping to rest, each drove for 4-6 hours and our bodies didn’t get tired at all. The only thing is that by the end of the trip, the buns were numb and we recovered from this effect on day 2. But excuse me, we had to travel for 26 hours without a break, I think in our seats the effect would have been much worse. My uncle also liked the chairs, since he is shorter than me and very quickly made a chair for himself the way he needed it. Well, photos of the manufacturing process and the final version.
