Default ***swapping rails, recaro srd question***

That's a big negative.

The Recaro rails are totally different in how the seats bolt to them. You will have to get a set of Recaro rails. Remember that EG/DC rails bolt to the chassis differently than EK rails...................and vice versa.

you don't necessarily need to get "RECARO" rails, but Memoryfab rails will work fine. There are a few people selling these rails in the market forums.

I understand that the recaro buckets bolt completely differently and I understand that the dc rails bolt to all but one hole on EK's.. But I know people have put del sol seat pan on s2k seats. I can't believe that the recaro reclinable seats would be much different that than si seats.

Beleive it. I currently have a set of DC2 black Recaros. Recaro seats have an exclusive rail mounting system that is no where near OEM Honda seats such as Del Sol, EP3 Civic Si, or S2000.

You will need to invest $200-$400 for a set of rails depending on which ones and where you get them from.
