i used the crv rails on my prelude leather heated seats. Stills sits a low lower due to the seat construction. I found civic rails sat WAY too low.

I'll be sharing pics tomorrow, i didn't have a chance to put the sits on today.. They have EK rails on them.. I'll try them on, i like low sits anyways but if they're too low i'll take them to a shop to use my crv rails..

@armed,
i have the buddy club bucket seats on my V, im using same buddy club seat rails for civic/teg,
its a low rails similar to bride rails... i dont like it for daily use, i need to put cushion(i used memory foam)
so i have a better eye view but on track its good since you wont be worrying any other things there
compared to the street/road...
ill try to mount my rsx eats from my civic 4door to my other crv if i could get a spare oem seats
for the civic, somebody is offering me a good price on it...
@freshxjdm,
if you could find someone to do a seat cover and use a similar material w/ the rsx cloths and red stitching...
that would really complete your interior look!!

buddy has a stock 99 V with EK/EJ front seats and rails. They sit about 3" lower. IMO perfect height. Im 6'1".
Getting those rails is on my to do list.

ok so i only put the passenger seat on.. it was hard to align it and it's too close to the door, so i'm gonna take it to a shop to get it re-welded.. if i have time tomorrow i will put the driver seat.. and put pics.. it seats about 2-3 inches lower..

Re: Black 1st Gen Crv 5spd
***UPDATE***
My new sticker
Random pic
So here is how the seats look like on the V. I love them!!! they seat like 3-4 inches lower when the seat is set to its lowest and they sit about the same height as the stock Crv (at its lowest) when they are set at the hightest.. maybe like one..
So i decided to go with F2 Type One Coilovers for the Accord 98-02. I haven't put the on yet but once i get the time, most likely next weekend, i'll put them on.. I have a couple of questions about this set up.. So anybody that has these coilovers please LMK..

Those seats look so comfy.... those coilovers look so beautiful.
Throw them on! I can't wait to see how the V sits, for around $600 i hope they're worth it. Function & Form coilovers for Civics however are said to be absolute **** and not recommended, the preferred ones are Koni/GC. Hurry hurry :D

Re: Black 1st Gen Crv 5spd
dude! seriously can you hook me up with one of those stickers? =D
also let us know what you think of the right quality on those. the spring rates should be Spring Rates: 12kg front/ 8kg rear, which is a little stiffer in the rear than the complete CRV kits that some sell.

Re: Black 1st Gen Crv 5spd
ive been in a hunt for those cloths eversince.. once i found a cheap pair thats legit but the owner
wants 300 for it.... then i cam across several leather but w/ scrupulous sellers so i didnt even
entertain it, it might be stolen or something... then my friend offered me his rsx leaters for 100 thats
when i jumped on it... i admit it feels weird in my civic since its tall but i did guess that itll be
a great fit for the crv, you did a great job!!!
**now im back on a hunt again, you made me itch for the cloths..LOL!
the only thing keeping me from swapping out the leather from my civic is that i use the lower carriage
on the passenger side to keep my gps and some other small stuff..
