softer seats
THe seats in my eg are hard as a rock compared to my wifes corolla. We went on drive up to SF and after 8 hrs I tailbone was a bit sore. Any honda seats that have softer padding. I guess I can bring some pillows next time.

Re: softer seats
What are you smoking?
Integra seats are very comfortable, as are del sol seats.
96-00 civic seats are hands down the worst civic seats I've sat in. 00 Si seats are exactly the same as regular civic seats except maybe lumbar adjustment. They still have no side support.

Re: softer seats
Plus they're black we/ red stiching. You can raise and lower the seat with a pump, nice seats.

Re: softer seats
I had 09 si seats for a while. They were very nice for what they are. Easiest thing to do is just and reweld the brackets on. Measure repeatedly and just make sure the holes are really close and they'll bolt right in. Great OEM seats and you can typically find them for $150-300.

My 96 are pretty hard, but I am used to them, even on 3 hr drives. One thing after 15 years no sagging and the cloth held up pretty good, no rips.

Re: softer seats
I sat on 96-00 civic seats for 5 years. I don't know how I did it. I drove back and forth to AZ twice, 70,000 miles overall that I used those seats and I wish I'd gotten something different a long time ago.

Re: softer seats
it would be cheapest to take them to an upholstry shop and have them repadded. then u can choose the softness of foam that u want in there. just shop around alil and find a good price on a local shop.

Re: softer seats
What? Every re-upholstery shop I've talked to wanted $500-$600+ for reupholstering the seats. I would think they would want another $500 to re-pad the seats.
You could buy a minty set of used Recaros for that.
Used integra seats for for $200 around here. S2k seats $300-500 and you can install your civic seat pan and rails on the s2k seats for free!
