the 92-95 Civic carries the same mounting points as the 94-01 integra.
If you were to mount either seats into your 96-00 Civic, you would find that 3 out of the 4 mount spots line up.
There are 2 ways you can mount these seats.
1)
The 4th hole will be off by about 2-2.5 cms. You can use a large self-tapping screw or predrill a hole and use a sheet metal screw and fender washer. Either of these will hold stable.
2)
Use the 96-00 mounts (rails) with the EG sliders. In other words, split the mounting brackets in 2. Use the EK bottoms and the EG tops. This is more work though.
Some people will also say you dont need the 4th mount, I have run this set-up and you really dont have too much to worry about for daily driving, but for safties sake you should mount that 4th whole.
Also note, using the EG or DC mounts will make the seats sit about 3-4 cms lower, this to me is a nicer feel. You can be closer to the wheel and feel more in control of the car. Also good if you are a taller person.
Using the split method will cause the seats to sit about 2cm higher.
good luck, hope this helps. This is what I learned when I used ITR seats in my coupe.
