Ummm I think the whole seat thing is shady. I just put 89 Si seats (Front and Back) into my 90 Dx and had no fiting issues what so ever. Everything bolted right up I think it all depends on what type it is. This particular 89 had the seat belts on the door. Maybe this was a late model 89 and my car was an early model 90? Who knows, its really all trial and error.

rest of world 88-91 crx seats all interchangable
88-91 civic all interchagable

for the us

88 crx can only go into 88 crx and 89 hf
89-91 crx go into each other

88-89 civic can only go into that
90-91 civic can only go into that...</TD></TR></TABLE>

Gator knows...
I put 91 CRX Si(red stripes, mon) into my 89 CRX si with zero problems. Bolted in.

crxgator

iirc, you can put 88 si (us spec) seats into a 1st gen without any problems? (davens)

Vaans

Disregard that last post by me, turns out that Si I got thoes seats from was a '91. Turns out the previous owner swaped VIN numbers so it appeared to be an '89. However, when we stripped it out, the ECU was dated 1991. Sorry for the confusion.

I put my 91 CRX Si Seats into my 88 this summer, not a perfect fit, (they both lean a little bit but almost unnoticeable to the naked eye) and all I had to do is a bit of bending and use one less bolt.

Bump; anybody ever put 94-97 Integra seats into a 90 hb? I'm pretty sure the rails are different, thus not allowing all the floor bolts to line up; would I be able to swap pans?

anyone know how high those seats fit? because im pretty tall, and i have a pair of 2000 si seats laying around. i wanted to put them in because my hatchs seats are ripped to hell, but i was worried about how high it would position me. i have del sol seats in my em1, and i LOVE the extra headroom

So do you know any site or places that sells 91 Civic bracket seats? I've been looking for a while now and haven't found one yet.

Do you get my drift....... CRX and Civic seats ARE NOT interchangable. For example: 90 Civic HB seats WONT fit into a 90 CRX and vice verse. Seats are one of those year specific things. And once again, ANY other seats will have to be modified.

thats not true cuz i have 91 crx seats in my 90 dx hatch and they fit

SuperJay

I have personally installed 90-91 H/B seats into y old 89 H/B with no modifications, seatpan swap or rail swap. But it might be different with canadian models.

I know it fits. Bolts right on.
But for the bracket, will 92+ Civics or Crx seat bracket fit 91 Civic?

I have an 89 civic Si hatch (not CRX), and my seats aside from a complete reupholster are fubar.

I have some 93 civic hatch seats, i though I would try to swap the pans, but the way the seatbacks attach to the seat pans are completely different. Not even close to being similiar. On the 89 seats (SI at least) the reclining mechanisms are attached on the inboard side of the seatback. The the other pivot point is not on the outside edge of the seat (like eg's), it is set a few inches inboard of the pan. Plus on the EG seats the reclining mechanism is on the DOOR side of the seat.

I have also yet to find any aftermarket solution for racing/ricing seats that applies to the 89 civic hatch.

So damn frustrating!

tkda

ok so will DA fron seats sit lower than DC seats?
Also what rear seats will work for my car? dc, da, ek?
its a 90 dx hatch.

PuroMotor

Now my question is a question that hasnt been answered. I want to use Memory fab seats, F1 spec seat etc etc..But I cant seem to find what my bracket options are. People say custom this and custom that but no one posts pics. So if anyone makes brackets(preferably sidemounts) please post in this thread.

I've been searching for the answer to this one....wil 90-91 sedan front seats fit into a 90-91 hatch??....would I have to swap the rails or can this be done without any modification?? I found a clean set of front seats from a 91 sedan that I want. They have the automatic seat belts on them, which I can pull off, but I'm hesitant because don't know for sure if the rails will line up with the holes in my hatch.

Spoon Sports

Done it before and will be doing it again. I'll try to get pictures and post them up when I get done.

peej

Great!!...I'll be waiting for those pics! Thanx for the quick answer!

scottmog

Wow, so many "will this go into this?" Questions.

Answer: almost any honda/acura seat can be transferred via pan fkn swap. Its so ez. I've done eks in my wifes crx, teg gsrs in my friends crx, s2ks in my other friends crx and eg seat in my sisters crx. Everything works... Period. Pan swap and tighten the seats with zip ties. Done!!!!

So many retarded people here. Thank you OP for yet again telling everyone this but in a week everyone will have forgotten.

Ldo

Chill dude!

Until I see pics of your mentioned pan swaps, I have to call b/s.

Sure you can try to swap the pans, but the end results will probably look like crap with material overhanging and zip ties as interior decoration. Let's just pray that the zip ties will hold in a crash after months of heat treament in the car.

T-Mo

damn this is old... Hahaha I wrote this in like 2004. Wow.

crxmadness

If u want to see pictures just click on any of the "Honda and Acura Appearance/Cosmetic Forums" and they r full of pictures of cars with seats from a different car. Most of the seats in those pictures are the result of seat pan swaps.

Wow, u have no idea what u r talking about. Anybody that has done any type seat pan swap is laughing at u right now. Get up, Get out, and do a seat pan swap, then come back and read ur post. U will laugh at yourself too.

crxmadness

scottmog

lmfao? you obviously have never done a pan swap or at least corectly.

ill get the pics of my wifes ek seats in her crx tonight if u want but i doubt it will change your mind. you still be stubborn as hell im sure.

the overhanging material isnt even visible, u tighten the seat material as much as u can so that the seat fits perfect. it isnt difficult.

vega_ROCKS

I don't know if this was answered in here but what about hatchback and sedan REAR seats are they interchangable. Never been in a sedan so I don't know
