If any one is Intrested I put them in my civic and they look pretty clean.

Here's some pics.

Installed


Here on the front of the seats I used a dremel to cut the rivits holding the mounting bracket on the front of the rails and used some bolts I got from home depot to mout the Civic mouting bracket in the place of the 08 SI bracket holes line right up.


For the back holes the 08 SI rails are a tad bit longer than the civic rails so I just drilled a hole right through the floor board and bolted them in so that way you don't have some ghetto bracket holding the seat in and you can use the factory 08 si plastics to cover the bolts up(if you have them witch I don't. )

Oh and for the seat belt issue I just took the stock civic bracket off my old seat and bolted it in the the 08 SI location (Circled In RED) . In order to get this to work you have to cut off the cable I have circled in blue.

If you have any questions send me a message. Enjoy!

Is it sturdy?

edited. Good job for doing the work though. I personally think those seats are too bulky for that car. The 92-95 civic interior is very simple and those don't match well.

do your seats sit up real high in there

JDMCivicCpe86

Yes its very sturdy. I like to do alot of cornering and I don't like the look of aftermarket seats. the seats sit a little high in there and yes they are a little bulky but the are very confortable and they hold you in just as good as a racing seat but with the oem look.

xunsungheroesx why wouldn't the bolts hold me in? I used all oem bolts except for the rear and they are twice the size of the oem and so are the ones holding the civic brackets on the front? if you know somthing I don't then feel free to tell me Im open for Input.

how bout a shot from the outside lookin in... "windshield or door closed type" just to get an idea from a lil distance of how high they sit....

xunsungheroesx

I read 'bolts from Home Depot' and thought you weren't using the OEM mounting hardware. Anyway, I was just mentioning it because I would be careful of the bolt grade and making sure the strength is equivalent to whatever was originally used for that bracket. Size doesn't necessarily have anything to do with strength of a bolt, its more material and temper. I didn't mean to offend, just saying I personally wouldn't feel safe unless that bracket was factory or welded.

those seats look like its for fat people

DoWnfall

are people still able to get in the back those seats look good but f'in huge.

and how much higher then stock are the seats its almost not worth putting them in if theyre 1/2inch or more higher imo for my car

JDMCivicCpe86

xunsungheroesx no you didn't offend me I was just curious to what you were meaning. Yeah that makes sense I will look into welding them on in the future thanks for looking out. Yeah I can still fit three people in the back no problem the back of the seat curves for leg room

Heres a shot from the side with the door closed


here is the amount of leg room you get when your behind the driver seat and im 5"11.


Here is a front shot through the window sorry its a lil dirty but you get the Idea.

they are decent looking seats, they just look a little crowded.

but for the DIY effort
