I just had to ask... I'm new with the hole recaro seats thing and I was wondering if it was possible to use OEM EK Rails and/or sliders on Recaro SRD seats? Would it help if the SRD's had sliders? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

 

BTW , happy new years everyone!

 

Anyone?

 

you need to get EK rails for your recaro srds. oem rails wouldn't fit. recaro srds came with eg/dc2 rails.

Figures. Mine didn't come with any brackets or rails, just sliders. So I just wanted to throw this out there to see if anyone has done it.

 

Anyone else?

 

seems that you only got the sliders. They will work if you have the bottom brackets from any recaro eg/ek. since you can unbolt those. but no oem. should check out memoryfab.com since they also make rails/sliders for recaros.

i dont feel like spending 2 bills on those rails sliders crap.

I will do a DIY on this.

 

Well let me know when you do. I still haven't bought the brackets. My seats came with the sliders but that's about it.

Had a set in my '00 for a while.
Worked well and were in the same price range as everything else.

Step 1: Buy EK9 Red Recaro SRD's for your 96-00 Civic.

Step 2: Trade just the seats with someone who has DC2 Black Recaro SRD's in their 92-95 Civic / 94-01 Integra.

Step 3: Happy Dance.
