Yea you need to cut some of the metal from the bottom of the rear seats. Someone had a DIY on here or one of the other EM2 forums.

black seats are no good with tan interior it looks ALRIGHT but its sumthign to get used to.

what's wrong with an auto? up to this point, you haven't explained your reasoning... all you've said is "automatic DX FTL;" "ew whats that thing in the middle of your 2 seats .. i thinks its called an "automatic transmission"

no reason to diss somebody for their tranny. seems kind of stupid if you ask me. a car's a car for **** sake. additionally, it's just a damn civic with a shitty d17. AT or MT, you're not gonna see a big difference in performance. a MT doesn't make you more of a man, if that's what you think... it just might make you feel better for whatever reason...

anyways, if you don't have anything positive to say, don't say it. this ain't preschool dude. enough with the name calling and mom jokes.

You do realize you're adding about 50+ lbs of weight with those front RSX seats, right?

And the black and tan...not too sure about that. It reminds me of people who install unpainted bodykits. But to each their own.

The black tan theme would work better with a little more color contrasting. Maybe just reupholster the door inserts or something.

would the rsx rear seats fit in a civic 4 dr? Is it also lighter or heavier than the seats in the civic 4dr.
