Tried searching already. Does anyone know how this can be done safely without any welding. I would really like to install a set in my EM1. Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

lol..wut?

 

i put ep3 (the rsx) seats in my my 96 all bolts lined up except 1. also you have to bend the bracket a lil were the bolts mount up. but it is easy, installled mine in 45min

 

i got a set for sale

 

those look awesome
i but those seats go for some money though. i havent even seen any forsale yet

 

ebay?

 

dude!!! if you find another set.. lmk!! that looks SOOO good! i want!

 

Its not hard to install a set at all if you have a bunch of metal brackets, some drills, maybe a welder, but definatly some bolts, and a load of free time. I would imagine 06+ SI seats are remarkably similiar to the RSX-S seat intall to any 92-00 civic.

 

Please Read The Original Post
This is not my car. I was wondering how to install them before I pick them up. Thanks.

 

If I remember correctly, I was told that you could use your stock EM1 sliders and brackets. You just have to drill the holes (where the bolts attach the bracket to the seat, 2 bolts on each side of the seat) bigger to accomadate either the spacing of the 07 Si seat bolts, or to accomadate the bolt itself from the 07 SI (possibly bigger seat bolts.) Its relativley easy to do. I wish I had some pics, I have seen some in a EG recently.

For those looking for a set of these seats, I saw one seat on ebay, good condition, NO ONE BID ON IT! Someone on here has a pair in one of the F/S threads for a good price, one of them has a barley noticible stain on it. And H-T Member Bleedblue94 has a pair for sale in N.Y. I think hes asking $900. His are absolutley mint too.

 

wow.. that looks really good.. i still like my type r tho... but looks awsoem man put up some pics when u done.

 

looks sharp!!!

 

the Si seat might possibly be too wide and cause problems with the arm rest's or b pillars

nah, its all good they arent too wide. the eg i saw them in had an armrest, it wasnt a tight fit, plenty of room.
