Default RSX or S2000 Seats? Which is better?

I have S2K seats in my DC and was thinking of swapping them for some RSX seats. The big issue is that the S2K seats don't recline because they're from a 2 seater. I figured the RSX seats would be more comfortable, but the S2K seats would give better lateral support. Any opinions?

Well, that answers it! I thought the RSX seats would be a straight drop in. Thanks for the info.

So are S2000 Seats a direct bolt on?

Pretty much, 3 of the 4 bolts work. The other you just have to fab a bracket for, it's really easy. You can always use DC or EG rails for a drop in fit as well. I reall can't complain about them, they're great seats, I just thought the RSX seats would be more comfortable.

Interested in seeing pics if you got any? Just curious how they look. Even when driving the s2k i feel like they dont recline very far but figure thats just because the limited space.

The stock one will work, but it's worth it to find a junkyard and get a set of stock EG fronts and use those pans as they're exactly the same and will leave you with your stock (and much more valuable) seats still in tact.
