I just installed del sol seats into my 00 ex. The sol seats are not a direct fit so you have to swap the ek rails to the sol seats. Not hard but it takes some time.

The last time I check, only three of the bolts were the same and the ones closest to the center console (the rear) were different!

Are the seats really low? I traded for a EK hatch with del sol seats and they are on the original rails (drilled holes to fit). They sit really really low though.. I'm 6'3 and i can't quite see the hood even..

I actually had both these seats in my del sol... Find ek rails because the del sol seats are not a direct bolt on. You’ll figure it out when you try to install them. And as for the bolts, mine were (3) 10mm with a 12 head and (1) was a 14 head with a 12mm thread.

Go to autozone and pick some up.

Sol seats always ride low in civics, that's one reason people don't put civic seats in del sols.
