Default S2000 seats in EM1 (PLEASE HELP)

i just got some AP2 S2000 seats for my 2000 civic si EM1
Anybody know of any DIY or HOW TO's i can look at? or has anybody ever done it? does anybody know if its different to put S2k seats in a civic hatchback than an EM1??? Does anybody know if i have to buy anything extra? or can i do a rail swap with my SI seats in some way? any modifications i can do to make it work without paying a butt load of money? if you did have to buy something extra? what was it and how much do they usually run?
PLEASE HELP! or i wont be able to drive anywhere hahaha. THANK YOU!

This article used to have pics but it does have some instructions. Basically, you'll have to take apart your stock seats and swap the bottom pans out in order for the s2k seats to fit properly.

i just put mine in! DO NOT CHANGE UR RAILS! the whole point of these seats is to sit super low... so put ur seat into place and simply hammer down the front 2 tabs and bolt them in... u might have to push the rail a bit with ur hand while u put the bolt in.... in the rear i had to widen to hole a bit on one of the rails and on the other i had to trim the edge of the rail to get the head of the bolt to clear it.... I have 3 bolts in, they sit solid and super low if u change ur rails u will have s2k seats stock ek height=corney!

That is super ghetto and probably unsafe... The point of the seats is to have nicer looking/feeling seats... Why in the hell would you want to be sitting on the floor of the car... The right way to do the swap is to swap the seat pans. If he does it your way how is he supposed to recline the seat???

To the OP if you run into issues along the way feel free to PM me I just did the swap a couple months ago.
