i got a set of 96 integra gsr cloth seats and i was wondering would they just bolt into my 1990 dx hatch and if not would i be able to just swap the rails.

 

The only seats that will bolt directly to your car are seats out of a 90-91 civic. You have to do a seat pan swap and if you search you will find all the help you need.

Read the above threads and they were informative. However I am wondering a similar question:

What swaps in the best into an EF?

90-93 DA Seats (do they sit lower, same height)?
94-00 DC Seats (do they end up sitting higher)?

What model 'teg seats are the best to use? I was thinking of modifying a set to put in in '91 Sedan.

 

Anybody??

 

well honestly i dont think the dc seats will work doing a seat pan swap. i tried swapping some in my 89 dx and on the seat pan on the dc seats connects to the peice that holds the top of the set to the bottom of the seat. so if you remove the seat pan then the top of seat will not connect to the bottom. probably need custon rails for dc seats.

Sure that's fine and what I suspected, anyone know if the DA seats sit lower than the DC ones?

 

I have 2001 GSR seats bolted into my car right now. They need a little bit more adjustment (drilling a new hole) before they look perfect, it isn't show, but it definitely is better than the torn CRX seat I had in there.

Seat pan swap will work, you just may have to use a Home Depot bolt or some drilling on the rail on the DC seat itself to make a hole for stock mounting points rail-seat.

They sit about right for me, I've got some head room (I'm 5' 11"), and they're comfy. Don't move around any to cause problems.

usually when you have to mod the rails in some way to make them fit they sit higher.

i modded a pair of s2000 seats to crx si rails and they sat at least an inch higher.

i had to do it like that since a seat pan swap was not even an option.

 

thanx alot for the info guys it turns out that i didnt need to do a seat pan or seat rail swap. the front two points on the dc rails bolted right in and then i just had to drill one of the rear holes and put in a longer bolt so it would fit right. As far as how the seat sits it really doesnt feel that much different from my regular ef seats
