Default 07 Si seats made by Recaro?
I'd like to know if the factory seats in the 07 Civic Si are made by Recaro. me and my buddy were arguing over it the other day and I'd like to know for sure.

thanks

They're all the same. The only difference between 2006-2008 and 2009-2010 is the fabric used. But overall, the shape and structure of the seats are all the same.

The fabric used on the upper bolsters (the black fabric with the holes in it) is just a little different. Look at a picture of the interior of an '07 Si, then go to Honda.com and look at the interior pics from the '10. Not a huge difference, but that's the very first thing I noticed when I looked at the first pics of the '09.

The Si wheels are not made by Enkei.

They're made by Alcoa.

Alcoa... like the manufacturer of all the big wheels made for the muscle cars in the 60's and 70's? Interesting.
