Default 1997 Civic HX Seat Choices

Bought a 97 HX about a month ago and have been enjoying the fuel economy that it gets (Constant 40+ MPG. :D ) but one thing is REALLY bugging me about the ride and that's how high and uncomfortable those darned seats are.

Now, I'm a little spoiled coming from a CRX Si with those stock Recaro designed bucket seats, but I really want to get that feeling back when I'm driving around. It's annoying being able to shift 3 inches in either direction on the seat and not have anything holding my sides.

So my question is: What kind of seats can 1. Either be put on the current rails in the car or 2. What kind of seat rails will be a direct bolt in?

Thanks!

Any idea on what year/trim Integra I'd need to look out for if I'm going to Pick-N-Pull?

I have black GSR cloths in my 00 EK Sedan and i absolutely love em... They're comfortable and sit much lower than the Factory seats, more of a "bucket" feel and look

Thanks for the suggestions! I'll keep my eyes peeled this weekend. I did a quick search and supposedly only three bolt mount up on the Civic rails, should I spend the extra time/money and get the seat rails from the Integra too?
