Default del sol seats vs ls seats-which sits lower

I currently have a pair of ls seats in my 93 hatch, just wondering if the del sol seats will sit lower? If so, how much lower and is it noticable? Im about 6ft and I think the ls seats sit alittle too high and dont slide back far enough.

thanks

Hard to say in numeric terms, but they sit way lower. My car came with Integra seats until I swapped in Del Slows.

Those are nice, but you have to switch out the floor pan or make custom mounts.

ok, another question, are the rails that are on my ls seats the same rails that are on the original si hatch seats, or are they taller? I know they bolt up the same but are the rails the same from civic and integra? I just want the del sol seats as low as possible.

thanks again

Yes, the DC rails are the same as your EG rails. Not quite sure about Sol rails tho.

Sols are the way to go, most comfortable stock Honda seats by far.
