Default Can 5th Gen Prelude seats be installed a 1991 CRX HF by seat pan swap alone?

Ok I have a set of 1997 Honda Civic EX seats already but they don't have as much side bolstering material/support as my current stock CRX HF seats but the CRX seats are all ragged, so my choice is to swap the Civic seats OR get these 5th gen Prelude seats but I am not sure if they are impossible to make work by the old trusted seat pan swap....anyone here know, I'd appreciate any and all information!

Thanks fellas!

I have seached here for pointers on this too

What prelude seats would be a straight swap(if any)

Or are there beter feeling seats (as far as around daily corners) from other hondas

I dont need fancy racing seats as my crx wont even be in a parking lot at a track much less on one.
I just want to stick with Honda parts

I don't know about fitment but as far as prelude seat comfort goes, 3rd & 4th gen Preludes are generally considered the most comfortable, not the 5th gens. Actually most people really like the 3rd gen seats & since they were made about the same time as our EF's they might swap in nicely.
