Switch the seat rails, use the CRX rails on the new seat, any seat should fit in there if you go that way.

You will probably have to change out the seat pans as well as the rails. I also have an 88 and that is what I had to do to put 89 Si seats in it. I tried changing the rails but they would not bolt up.

I dont have any seat rails to use. Looks like its time to bolt it to the floor or get seats from a 88

Hey I wouldnt bolt them into your floor. The OE spots 'might' be reinforced. The bolts could rip out in a wreck....CRX's are unsafe enough!

Yeah, I used the seat pans off of my dx seats. They were very similar to the Si's. The cushions were slightly different but did fit with a just minimal cutting. You will see what I mean if you do it. If you have the time and patience you can even change out the foam if it is still good. Mine was kind of rough and I got real frustrated with those damn hog rings so I just changed the pans. IM if you have any questions.

YOU CAN JUST GET 88 RAILS FROM THE JUNK YARD AND FIND ANY HONDA SEAT YOU WANT BUT I CAN TELL YOU THIS, I HAVE A 88 CRX HF AND BOLTED IN SOME 91 SI SEATS AND USED THE SAME RAILS ON THE SEATS. I DID HAVE TO BEND THE RAILS A LITTLE BUT NOT BAD.

The length between the rails changed from 89-90 just find some 88-89 si seats that are in better condition there real supportive and will bolt right in otherwise you have to drill or weld or just look into some aftermarket ones

i have a red 90 si hatch and have the red del sol seats in them, they look really good in the car and are very comfortable, i had to drill 4 holes and bolt them down.
thats what i would do if you are going to drill holes in your car. i think you will really like them.
