do seats from an si EM1 bolt into ek's 1998 Hatch DX if that matters?

 

its a direct bolt in

 

u have to swap the inside rails...

 

wich rails does anyone have pictures

 

from the actual car?

 

why would you have to swap inside rails? i thought all 1996-2000 rails are the same. for eg/dc seats you gotta swap the inside rails tho.

 

you don't have to swap rails!!!!

the back seat won't fit at all though

 

so im SOL?

 

as far as the back seat goes yes, but the fronts you can use no problem

Only the front seats

 

damn now i need some rear seats

 

Well, the seats are just like any other Civic coupe seats. They're just a different pattern, holes in the headrests and some other cars don't have the extra **** on the side.

They still look a whole lot better though

 

naw, you have to buy jdm dc2r rails to make an em1 seat work in a non-em1 car. true story

naw you're wrong too, they have to be individuallly hand crafted from japanese steel because no 96-00 Civics are exactly alike. good try though

no ur wrong, the 99-00 seats(em1 and regular civics) have height adjustment ***** on the side, so im pretty sure u have two swap the rails.

lol

They look the same!

What color is your interior? F or K? The fact that it's a hatch (therefore a lower trim than an Si or EX) probably has more to do with it.

Also '99-'00 seats in K appear to have a darker fabric than the '96-'98s.

The rails are the same. The ***** have nothing to do with the rails.

 

having actually put em1 seats into my ek
u have to swap the inside rails with ur stock rails to get all 4 holes to line up

& whoever says otherwise doesnt know what there talkin bout

this is why i hate this section
everyone just pulls stuff out there *** & acts like its fact

Then why come in here?

I was busy looking up the information. This guy could have probably found it had he searched.

And come to find out the Si and EX still have the same rails like I was trying to say (I said the ***** do not make the rails any different - and they don't).

 

he has a DX hatch not an ex

hatchs & coupes have different inside rails

 

dont get EM1 seats anyway, they're not comfortable at all, well all 96-00 civics seats are uncomfortable. get some dc2 gsr seats, there bomb yo

I never said he had an EX.

Oh, and according to my boyfriend (who had Si seats in his '97 CX), they bolt right in with the same rails. Perhaps your rails had already been swapped?

That's because they're pretty much the same as any other trim's seats. It's a waste of money. He might as well just dye his own seats.

 

i remember one of the bolt holes not lining up
but it was close enough

ur bf probably just muscled it on there...

yeah i agree em1 seats suck!

I couldn't figure out WHY the inner rail would be different since the floor pan on the coupes and hatches are the same (same carpet and all even).

I figured the reason the part numbers were different could have something to do with different options or parts attaching to the rail. Notice that the part number isn't for just the rail, but is for several different pieces including the rail. those clips coudl be different, but I didn't check their part numbers.
