Hey, new here.
I just bought a 98' bare civic, I'm 6'4'' so the stock seats put me a little too close to the ceiling, and they provide no support. I was looking at integra seats, wanted to check with you guys/gals as to what I can fit in there with minimal/no modification.
I was thinking of swapping my rails with the integra seat.

Thanks!

I know the faq includes a few, but they don't say if it's a lower or a higher riding height

when i say from back i mean slid all the way back (the whole seat) then one click forward or two clicks, im not talking about the back of the seat angle...just for clarification

Pikn

When you lean forwards, does your head hit the ceiling/shades? Because that's what's going to happen in an accident to me if I get into one.

When swapped with civic rails, are gsr seats still low? Or do I have to mod the rails or drill the car to install them?

del Sol seats are probably your best bet. S2000 seats sit low too, but are more expensive and more difficult to install (seat pan swap).

s200 seats if you got money but if on a budget del sol seats do not get 99-00 si seats very uncomfortable

Does any one know what's some good LIGHT OEM OR AFTERMARKET SEATS for the same car?

Is the del sol seats lighter than the regular CX hatch seats?

I have these in my 96 hatch. They are WAY better than the original ones. They sit lower, hug you more and are so much more comforatble!

K20R_EK

What has to be changed, and are the gsr seats lighter by chance?

Pikn

wait, gsr seats, when swapped into civic rails, are lower? I thought they sat higher on civic rails. GSR seats are much easier to find, so I would appreciate the help

I have 2000 GSR seats in my 96 EK with the stock civic rails and they sit quite a bit lower than my womans stock 98 civic Ex seats

Pikn

sweet, I should look into them. Would anyone know about gsr seats being consistent across 92-00?

I have leather seats from an acura 1.6 el in my 98 civic SI and I could put the seat higher or lower back and front, if you get what I mean only the *** cushion goes up or down, and they were bolt on the front ones, back ones are kinda diffrent, mods needed

Pikn

Did you do a straight bolt in without the rails or did you swap rails for that?

GSR seats ftmfw.

got them in my sleeper.

del sol seats with civic rails is the best OEM combo IMO. i'm bout 6' and with my del sol seats i only sit 3 clicks back from upright. with my gsr's (w/ gsr rails) i had to lean back considerably just to be comfortable.

gsr seats with civic rails is significantly lower than gsr seat w/ gsr rails.

Ignore the price if you want, just make me an offer.

GSR seats suck, IMO. I had a GSR with leather and hated it.

The leather is really crappy and very slippery with almost no bolstering. Instead of sitting in cloth park benches like the civic, you sit in slippery leather park benches. Weak.

EM1 seats are the SAME as DX/EX seats, just with a hole at the top.


I have LS seats in mine. They sit about 1" lower than my DX seats and they are more comfy too since they hug you more.

Pikn

1" is not quite enough for me, I rally want to sit upright, so I guess I should keep hunting del sols
