Pretty much anything can fit if you make it. IM sure all 3 of those will fit. However, from what I read on a different thread, if you put S2000 seats in a Prelude, it'll be hard for passengers to get in the back seat cuz those seats are made for a 2 seater car and so it don't really slide forward as much..or something like that. IM not sure about that tho, that's just what I read on a different thread so I thought I'd just bring it up. Oh yeah and for a Del Sol which is also a 2 seater might be the same?? Again, I don't know but I just wanted to bring it up since I did read about it in a thread, a thread here in Honda-Tech itself.

The only seats I would swap into my 4th Gen are s2000 seats, other than that prelude seats are the most comfortable out of the ones you mentioned

del sol seats are not as good a 4th gen prelude seats,

4th gens are made by recaro, and i have driven/ridden in both, del sol seats are horrible.

either s2k seats (although i am starting not to like those) probably just integra type R SRD's are the only thing i would swap in

S2K seats weight about 33-35lbs, cause I had to ship some out the other day and with the box I put them in, they weighed 72lbs together...If you want some Civic Si seats, I have a set of those for sale. I'm only asking $450+shipping for them

2 questions: How much space between the top of the seat and the roof will you get with those, and what sort of fabrication is required on the mounting brackets?

I don't know how much room is between the seat and the roof, and to mount them up, you will have to change the rails since they came out of a Civic

personally, i'd stick with the stock prelude seats. they're very comfy and offer good support to ribs and back. best OE seats ever
