Teg brackets are the same as civic coupe, hatch, and sedan. The sol has it's own unique brackets.

I've never done an ITR swap into a del sol, but I have done a Sol swap into my EG and its already been established that teg and EG rails are the same.


Wouldn't it stand to reason that its as simple as reversing the rail swap from the Teg to the Sol? Though i'll concede the fact that swapping rails was a major PITA for me, but didn't take more than two hours for both seats.

i guess my choices are to drill new holes, swap out seat pans, or buy new brackets/sliders.
i'm only 5'3 so i don't think i'm gonna have any clearance problem, beside NOEL (delsolsir) had recaros in his sol and i don't think he had clearance problem. we'll see. my friend is suppose to help me on sunday so i will take some pictures when i'm done.

You shouldn't need to swap seat rails. The rails will unbolt from the pan.

you should've just asked us for help in the sol thread, Vy.

it's pretty much the same concept as putting sol seats into a civic/integra, and vice versa. 94-01 Integra and 92-95 Civic are interchangeable with eachother, so you do not have to switch the rails. Del Sol brackets have a different pattern, so there are no seats that will bolt directly into the Del Sol. you must switch the rails and brackets.

DIY/How to: Del Sol Seats into an EK
in an EK, but same concept. if you were closer, i'd do it for you . its like a 30min-hour job.

for S2000, EP3, and RSX seats, you will have to switch out the seat pans. like so:
