It's a great suggestion. And FWIW, I actually did investigate, and I have notes on Viotek, Wagan, and Sharper Image models. But they all seemed to have the downsides of fan noise, condensation, or relatively high price.

These are just covers, not new upholstery. Very good covers, but removable quite easily. I could still experiment at a later time.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
