you'll need to make up some custom brackets to get em in there

that's my experience anyways (91 hatch w/ 89 crx si seats)

well in my case i had to redrill both the inner rails and then for the outers i made some kind of spacers out of 1" box steel... kinda like this

/____/

weak drawing but you get the idea, then on the flat parts above/below the slant cuts i drilled it out... the stock seat mounts on the floorpan were about 3" over and 1" lower than the bottom of the crx seat's pan so these brackets spaced it out almost perfectly

i kinda doubt your car will be the same though as myhatch is a 91 and the seats were 89 and i think you said your hatch was 89 with 90 seats
supposedly 88, 89, and 90-91 are all unique and then also civic and crx are both unique to each other so there's a lot of variations... my car is also canadian which has the pillar mount belts so that might make a difference as well

if you have some skill at fabbing stuff up or have a friend that does it shouldnt be that hard to get them in though
good luck dude
