Default Sick of your 92-95 cx-dx SEATS? I AM!

I dont know if you have noticed but i drove a 95 civic dx, and the seats in them are horrible! they dont grip you for ****, you turn hard enough and you fall from one side of the car to the other (not really but u know ). I hate this, but i dont really want to go aftermarket or get racing seats because i dont really want to race around! Any suggestions?
I know with VW's you can take seats from almost any generation and get them into another car without major issues, i wonder if preludes got good seats that would go right into a civ

lemme know

I havent really noticed you driving around. Guess I just dont see you at any of the stoplights. Oh well try getting the Del Sol seats ( have to modify the seat rails), Integra seats( 94-01 bolt in), and my favorite the S2000 seats have to be modified as well. If you dont like these options do a search on some JDM ITR recaro's.

Prelude seats fit 3 out of 4 bolts....

I've got them in my 95 hatch and absolutely love them...i just drilled and tapped the 4 hole out..... Definately a great improvement over stock seats

I autocross in my DX seats. I don't seem to have a problem. Probably because I wear a seatbelt and don't lay all pimped back in my seat (I'm seated properly when I drive).

I also hate the stock 92-95 stock seats and there nasty looking head rests

You can always get a set of Del Slow seats, or S2000 seats on ebay or on here
Just keep your eye open and you will see many stock seats for sale

I just got a pair of del sol seat in my dx. They are a big improvement over the stock civic seats. Much more support.

They also sit like ~3in lower. I'm still getting used to it.

You just have to swap the civic sliders to the del sol seats and everything fits right.

Are they the 96+ ones? I have the same ones I think in my HX and man, on a hard left, I end up sitting in the passenger seat!

The Del Sol seats are nice. The integra seats are nice as well but I prefer the Del Sol seats. Either one would be a jump up from the stock seats. Both Del Sol and Integra seats need the seat rails from the Civic and then they just bolt in.

I have 98 gsr cloth seats and I love them. The lumbar is awesome. deflate the lumbar and you have some good side bolster support. They do sit a little higher than the stock civic seats. My friend has del sol seats in his civic and they sit too low for me.

If your taller, then the Del Sol seats are a good choice.

Integra seats are perfect for the EG you'd only have to do a tad bit of modification to make it fit like a glove.

The 92-95 EX seats are comfortable
