Default lowering seat position...?

I have a 2000 si and absolutely hate how high the seats sit. I used to drive a 1991 Prelude and loved the lowered sports car/cockpit position! I was browsing http://www.jhpusa.com and found 2 options...

Vision one touch seatslider $180(lowers hip position by 50mm)
http://www.jhpusa.com/catalog/...d=955

Vision super low position seat rails $320(not sure how much lower)
http://www.jhpusa.com/catalog/...d=981

Does anyone have any experience with these or other brands??? Any suggestions or recommendations would be very much appreciated. I may just be being picky, but I am definitely willing to spend the $ to be satisfied. Thanks!

You are def right about the seats...they suck ***!!! However, swapping the seats may be a little too costly for me right now.

here's the link to the "how to" for the s2k seats in eg. i just thought i'd give you this so whenever you get your money for the swap you can do it.

Thanks!

Looks like S2K seats are the cheapest option...about $500 on ebay.

if your gonna waste $180 for those rails might as well get some del sol seats. you could probably find a set for no more then 250 bux. they sit low and hug you very well. very very comfortable as well.
