Default 2000 GSR seats in 96 Ek Hatchback??

If I remember correctly 2000 GSR rear seats will fit in replacement of the back seats in a 96 civic hatchback. Anyone know for sure?

search been done before with some space between the 2 sides & maybe small gap between the bench & the back

the best possible fit would be 4-dr integra (LS/GS/GSR/ITR) bottoms & 2dr backs

search "archive topics"
limit to "'92-00 Civic/Del Sol" forum
search "rear seats"

GSR coupe will fit the same as integra, & type r so you don't want to limit your search by using "GSR"

_adirondackR_ is correct. If you dont use 4dr bottoms and 2dr backs there will be a gap on both sides of the bottom seat and also a gap between the bottom and backs. I've leared this from experience, the gap is VERY noticible.

I had DC2 Leathers in my EK. There is a gap that is left on the sides of the seat ( didn't think it was that bad, but that's all relative). Plus you need to reverse the center bracket (it's a lot easier done that said).

integra 2dr top + integra 4dr bottom will be the perfect fit :D or it'll be a gap.

The seats will fit ok with slight modifications... This is what i did.

2 door GSR Leather seats front and back.
Rear bottom cushion, put a used towel underneath and it will raise it up to the seat backs.

Side will have a gap, however you can just purchase some black foam material or carpet and stuff it down the side and it looks good!

Seat backs, i suggest stripping the seat paddings and use the original metal frame from your hatch. this should fit with out any problems!

God bless,
Danny

Thanks everyone for all the insight. Now I know what I am getting into. The fronts no issue changing brakets. As for the rears for now I will set it up like said above and get carpet or leather on each side of some foam until I can find some four door bottoms.

What do you mean by stripping the seat paddings?

Stripping the seat paddings basically means that you would take out all those round clips on the back of your seat by using 2 pliers. carefully take off the padding and do the same for the integra ones. Be really careful with the metal frames! They are ultra sharp! Both my friend and I got a cut from the sharp edges!

When you have both paddings off, just put the GSR Seats in on the civic metal frame. Use zip ties where there used to be round clips. you shouldn't have any problems.
