Well i finally found some rsx seats which i always wanted for a descent price...but i wanna know a few things before i get them. First of all im guessing they wont bolt right in to my EK, so what has to be done to install these seats? Will the back seats even fit in my car? And will the seats sit higher or lower than my stock seats?

thanx for the help...

if you do decide to get them.....post up pics, there going to look real nice

sorry i couldn't help out, i haven't really herd of those fitting in your car or not

I heard that they sit higher then your stock seats. Hence one of the reasons I havent put it in my EL.

My buddy had a set of RSX leathers in his Del Sol.. they sat HIGH, he later got Type R seats and there much better suited.

one thing you could try that I hear some people doing, not sure if it will work tho, is swapping seat pans with stock seats....might sit a bit lower then (maybe)...thats if they fit..

PM EK_Racer, he used to have them in his ek hatch.

rsx seats are like the EP seats..
you won't be able to swap pans, these thing are pretty integrated..gen7 coupe/sedan seats are the same way

you'll have to cut off the old brackets from your seats and put them on the new rails...

I see...what about GSR seats? They bolt right in no? and will they sit higher than my stock seats?

you can always modify them when u make the brackets to sit lower aswell. I thnk the EP3 seats would be much better suited to your car though alex, cause there black with red accents.

the FRONT RSX seats will fit with some modification...as for the rears i was told they would not fit at all

i have a 99-00 civic as u i assume?

i heard s2k seats fit nicer and feel better too. they also sit lower than the rsx seats. check this out, http://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=347548 imo they look sexier too

S2K seats dont tilt foward do they?

spracingsports

yes they do.. but only slightly..... that link is a writeup on how to make them fully reclineable like stock

imported_SaYjAiBaO

check that thread i showed you guys. the guy swapped the bottom and now it's fully functional.

so i bought gsr leather front and back and the front 3 bolts boltet right in and one was way off on each side (good enough)...but the rear did not fit at all...it was about 2-3 inches too wide and the rear side panels in the civic are in the way...!@#$%

The only seats that actually sit you lower in your car are Del Sol Seats.

And yeah, one bolt doesnt line up on GSR/ITR seats into an EK. Too bad no-one chimed in to warn you before you bought them.

or he can just swap the seat rails...

scarlemthug

you mean seat pans right?.........

I dont think any seats will fit in the back of a civic coupe alex. The only thing i have heard is people gettting the type R rears and removing the fabric from em and pulling it over the stock EK rears and it turns out pretty nice.

imported_kIeRaN

no, on the gsr seats he just needs to change the seat rail on the one side of each seat...
