Default Can you switch seat parts

I searched and didn't see anything about replacing the back part of the front seats. I want to switch the seat back driver with the passenger seat back(part that headrest attaches to). I don't have alot of money to buy seats and simply want them to wear evenly. anybody done this?

I haven't but why not just buy used seats u may even upgrade. I just saw integra seats clean on Craigslist for 60$ Less work more comfort equals win win

Money's tight....do what you gotta do. I know it may sound like you could potentially waste your own time to see if it works but if you can locate the diagram of replacement oem parts you can probably tell if its doable or not.

on integras you can switch the seat bottoms but on the top only the fabric/foam and headreasts not the frame.

So after you did this, the recline lever was by the shifter?(on your new Frankenstein driver seat lol)


I'm gonna try this! i just want to switch the padding since it's worn more on driver seat.
