They look purty to me, I don't see any reason why they won't fit. Just make you some mounting brackets and ride. Looks like an S2000 seat with shoulder belt pass throughs.

I don't see why they wouldn't fit? You just have to find the best way to mount them... Does Summit Racing make rails or adapter to fit these to your stock rails? You can almost fit any seat in there it's just a matter of mounting it.

The most important thing about seat, however, is how they fit!!! You don't want to buy/install a seat that is too skinny for you or too wide. Too tight will be VERY uncomfortable and too wide won't hold you in place which would defeat the purpose.

We sell those seats at Pep Boys.

Go into your local Pep Boys and you'll see a display with those seats. That way you can test/sit in before you buy them. I don't know what Summit sells them for but we can price match.

you cant get jdm seats but you can afford 2 seats for $209 each? i hope your buying 2... i hate cars that have 2 different front seats.

i say find something else cheaper... but they will fit i think and i also think summit makes the adapter rails.

Those actually look pretty nice. I have Sparco's in my GTI and I love them. I know a couple guys selling them. I dont know for how much though. Please don't bash me for driving a VW. I am a Honda Fan too.

A cool seat to look into are the Tenzo Type R's (SRD copies). You can sometimes find a pair online for like $300-500. The Recaro SRD's or Speeds, IMO are timeless....just awesome reclinable seats.

I probably wouldn't get leather seats if I went aftermarket. I hate to say it but a local guy has some DAD seats in his Civic and they are really nice, I would probably get some.

It's fake black leather...get fabric ones.
I used to have full (real) leather CRX-VT seats in my car, and I got burned when I got in the car after it had been sitting in the sun for a few hours.
The seats have been sitting in the garage ever since that day.

Also you slide around in those seats. Slippery.
